Last Updated : 15 Jul, 2020

HTTP status codes are a conversation between your browser and the site server. The server gives responses to the browser's request in the form of a three-digit code known as HTTP status codes. The HTTP status codes are categorized into five sections which are listed below.

• Informational responses (100–199)
• Successful responses (200–299)
• Redirects (300–399)
• Client errors (400–499)
• Server errors (500–599)

Redirection Responses:

• 300 Multiple Choice: It is a link list. This request can have maximum five possible responses. The user can choose one of the links and go to the location.Status:
  300 Multiple Choice
• 301 Moved Permanently: The 301 moved permanently means that the requested resource has permanently been moved to a new URL. The new URL is given in the response.Status:
  301 Moved Permanently
• 302 Found: The 302 Found means that the requested resource has been moved temporarily to a new URL. The same URL should be used by visitors in a future request.Status:
