      How can you tell if a 301 has been set up correctly.  We had a .co.uk site that has moved over to a .com

      However the .co.uk we have hasd problems with the old webmaster giving control, but he has said he has implemented a 301 redirect to the new .com site, and if you click on .co.uk it does transfer you to the .com site

      How can we check that it is a 301 set up and not another sort of redirect?
