Why are Redirect Chains a problem?

Why are Redirect Chains a problem? Conventional wisdom has been that 301 redirects only pass about 85% of link equity. ... Unnecessary redirects also make it more difficult for Google to crawl the site, which can affect how well pages are indexed. Googlebot may give up if it encounters too many redirects.

A redirect chain occurs when there is more than one redirect between the initial URL and the destination URL. When a URL is redirected, it should have a single 301 redirect in place. Most redirect chains happen inadvertently for one of two reasons: Reason #1: Redirect chains are built over time.

Don't use more than 3 redirects in a redirect chain. Google Bot will not follow 301 redirects over multiple hubs. Using too many redirects in a chain is also bad user experience. The page speed will slow down with every redirect you use.
