302 Temporary Redirects
-
Hi,
We currently have a number of 302 redirects set up on our e-commerce store that redirect from no forward slash at the end to a forward slash at the end of the url (see below).
example: domain.com/treadmills
Redirects to
domain.com/treadmills/Am I correct in saying that this will not pass link juice and the redirects should be changed to 301's (or just removed?). Or are the two urls treated the same (with or without forward slash)?
Thanks in advance!
Regards,

Hi Dusty,
Have you done all 301 redirect ? Here is the latest video by Google Matt Cutt on 301 redirect: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=Filv4pP-1nw
Hope this help you out....

Hi Dusty,
It would be better to set up 301 redirects, instead of 302.
Check the article of Dr. Pete here. It really describes the status codes.
I hope it helps,
Istvan

Hi Dusty
That is correct that a 301 does pass link juice and a 302 does not.
I would go into detail, but SEOmoz has a very detailed description here!

Hope that helps

301 internal redirects
Hello, I have a lot of low quality pages on my site, many of which have very similar URLs and cover similar topics. I want to tidy up my site by using 301 redirects as Rand suggests here: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/how-to-solve-keyword-cannibalization 1. As a rough rule of thumb, how many internal 301 redirects is too many? 2. Can lots be to the homepage if they're relevant? (I could have as many as 30) Thanks, Kevin

Redirect and page ranking
We used to have a good page rank of Google, but now our page rank dropped to zero. A few months ago we did a redirect from our www.???.com to non-www.???.com, because non-www.???.com is now our main website. We also have a number of other domains which we redirect to our main website non-www.???.com Do you think these redirects are causing the problem, and if so what can we do to fix it? Thanks!
