SiteDetour vs redirect.pizza
redirect.pizza is a lean developer tool: hostnames in, redirects out, with request caps on every plan. SiteDetour hosts the same redirects with automatic HTTPS and no metering, and adds dynamic QR codes, audience routing, landing pages and real-time analytics from $12 a month. Built for marketing and IT teams who need more than a config file.

Why teams choose SiteDetour over redirect.pizza
A free tier is nice until it caps the one redirect that matters.
Why SiteDetour wins
No request caps on any plan, so you never think about traffic again. Audience routing by country, device, language or time on the entry plan, not a Pro upgrade. Real-time analytics kept for the life of your account instead of 3 to 12 months. And the same account prints dynamic QR codes on your domain and hosts landing pages, so marketing and IT share one workspace with roles.
When redirect.pizza still makes sense
You are a developer with a handful of low-traffic hostnames, you only need redirects, and a free tier with a request cap is acceptable. If that describes you, use it. The moment a redirect carries real traffic or a printed QR code, the caps and the missing features cost more than $12 a month.
Switching takes minutes
Export your hostnames and destinations, import them as CSV into SiteDetour with the dry-run preview, then move each domain's DNS. Certificates issue automatically once DNS propagates. Run both for a day, compare analytics, then cancel.
What you do not give up
Hosted 301 and 302 redirects, automatic certificates, apex and www support, path rules, query-string forwarding and an API. SiteDetour matches every core redirect feature and removes the caps. Both are far simpler than running nginx yourself.
What you would pay
Monthly list prices. redirect.pizza bills in euros with request caps; SiteDetour bills in US dollars with none, and annual billing saves about 17%.

Questions people ask when comparing
Does SiteDetour have a free plan like redirect.pizza?
No, and on purpose: a free tier with a request cap is a redirect that can stop working. SiteDetour offers a 14-day trial with no credit card (3 redirects, 3 QR codes, 3 audiences), then plans start at $12 a month with unmetered traffic. redirect.pizza's free tier covers 5 hostnames with a monthly request cap.
What happens on SiteDetour if a redirect gets a traffic spike?
Nothing changes. SiteDetour does not meter or cap requests on any plan, so a viral link, a bot wave or a campaign launch does not move you to a higher tier or stop serving. On a capped plan the same spike is an outage or an upgrade.
Can both redirect a naked domain and www?
Yes. Both support apex (A record) and subdomain (CNAME) redirects with automatic certificates. On SiteDetour the www subdomain is included free with every hosted domain, so one domain slot covers both.
Which has better analytics?
SiteDetour. It shows every hit in real time with countries, devices, referrers and protocol, per domain and organization-wide, keeps the data for the life of your account and exposes it through the API. redirect.pizza keeps analytics for 3 to 12 months depending on plan.
Can I send different visitors to different destinations?
On SiteDetour, yes on every plan: audiences route by country, continent, device, browser, language, referrer, query parameter or time of day. redirect.pizza offers dynamic destinations only on its Pro tier.
Is one better for SEO?
Both serve standard 301 redirects over HTTPS, so neither has an SEO handicap. What preserves rankings is mapping old paths to the right new pages, which SiteDetour's path rules, CSV import preview and free redirect checker help you get right.
