Redirect Hero - Fix 404 links report card
Fair · out of 4.0 · graded Oct 23, 2026
Best for 404 tracking on Shopify for a few dollars a month
Redirect Hero logs every 404 a Shopify store's visitors hit, with the referrer and visit count, and lets you fix each with a 301. Regular is $2.90 a month for tracking and manual redirects; automatic redirects, wildcard patterns and CSV import need Pro+ at $4.90. There's no free plan after the 7-day trial, and it does nothing beyond redirects.
Who Redirect Hero - Fix 404 links is for
- Fits if you want 404 monitoring on a Shopify store for a few dollars a month
- Works for stores moving from Magento or WooCommerce with many old URLs
Who Redirect Hero - Fix 404 links is not for
- Skip it if your store isn't on Shopify, as it installs only from the Shopify App Store
- Not for you if you want a free plan, as there's only a 7-day trial
- Tight if you stay on Regular, as automatic redirects, patterns, live page redirects and CSV import need Pro+
- Watch out: CSV export appears only on the yearly Pro+ card in the listing
- Too light for meta tags, sitemaps or schema, which need a separate SEO app
