Many webmasters might want to find out about the difference between a 301 and 302 redirect. To a client they appear to work a similar way, however, they aren’t the same to the extent search engines are concerned. Search engines since the diverse sorts of redirects and handle them in an unexpected way. A 301 redirect implies that the page has permanently moved to another location. A 302 redirect implies that the move is just temporary. Search engines need to make sense of whether to keep the old page or displace it with the one found at the new location. In any case that the wrong kind of redirect has been set up, search engines may end up confused, resulting in a loss of traffic.

For what reason does this make a difference?  If you are moving a website page or a whole site to another location, for example in the event that you change your domain name, you need guests to have the capacity to discover your site. A redirect makes the client’s program automatically forward from the old location to the better one. You may feel that Google and the other search engines would simply take after the redirects, yet that is the place things get confounded. At the point when a site moves, that can trigger the Google maturing delay. Normally the site drops out of the search rankings for a while, at times even a year. We’ll return to this later.

There aren’t an excessive number of situations where a 302 is appropriate. How frequently have you briefly moved a page? It’s significantly more common to move pages permanently. All things considered, it appears to be less demanding to make 302 redirects than 301s. You can utilize Javascript or a meta tag to make a 302. Making a 301 redirect requires exceptional charges in your .htaccess document on the off chance that you utilize an Apache server. With Windows servers, making 301 takes considerably additional time and inconvenience. That is for what reason there’s a tendency for individuals to mistakenly utilize 302 rather than 301.

Google perceives that numerous individuals utilize 302 when they extremely mean 301. Luckily, Google isn’t bound by any law to take individuals truly. For delivering the most ideal search results, Google can and should take a gander at 302s and make sense of if the webmaster truly implies 302, or if it’s common perplexity and they extremely mean 301.

Regardless of whether Google really handles 302s appropriately is an open inquiry. In the event that a 302 is utilized rather than a 301, search engines may keep on indexing the old URL, and dismissal the better and brighter one as a copy. Connection fame may be partitioned between the two URLs, harming search rankings. Search engines may make sense of how to deal with the 302, or they may not. Google representatives have said that they will regard a 302 as a 301 on the off chance that they think the webmaster has made a blunder, however, why take a risk, and shouldn’t something be said about other search engines?

At the point when permanently moving a site or a site page, the best practice is to utilize a 301 redirect. 302s in this situation appear to be off base. By saying “temporary move” a 302 advises search engines to keep the old domain or page recorded, yet it would be alluring for them to file the new location. In the past individuals have utilized 302 redirects with an end goal to go around the Google ageing delay. This workaround may have worked sooner or later, yet it’s anything but a present best practice.

If worried about losing rankings due to a 301, the arrangement isn’t to change a domain, and not to end up monetarily dependent on rankings. In reality, organizations abstain from changing their names since they can seem shady. Who can blame Google for employing a similar foundation: in case you’re changing domain names, you may be planning something sinister
