@Caroline_Ardmoor said in Redirects Advice:

We have many redirects in place - and sometimes 2 in a chain.
Is there a recommended time you should have a redirect in place?

1 or 2 redirect chain is fine but in 3 you will loose some link juice.
here is one tool called https://redirectchecker.com This can help you to get detail redirection chain and its status code.

@woshea Implement 301 redirects from the old URLs to the new ones. This tells search engines that the old page has permanently moved to a new location. It also ensures that visitors who click on old links are redirected to the correct content.
