Is this 302 re-direct on Magento a problem?
-
The SEOmoz crawler has pointed out this warning on my Magento store..
redirects to
http://www.mydomain.co.uk
Is this a problem? My site is new, so don't want to get penalised this early on! Any advice appreciated.

I read just recently on tehBing blog, that Bing will treat a 302 that has been in place for a long time as a 301, and visa versa, if a 301 keeps changing they will trat it as a 302
But I have no idea if Google does anything like this.

Yeah, that's a problem. That means if people put links to http://mydomain.co.uk, they won't be passing their link juice on to http://www.mydomain.co.uk if the redirect is a 302 (temporary) redirect. You should configure this to be a 301 (permanent) redirect.

Webmaster Tools Verification Problem
Hello, Somehow a website I'm working on has lost it's verification in Webmaster Tools. I have absolutely no clue why... The Google Analytics code is still working, the verification meta tag is in place, both are not working. I get an error message about Google not being able to connect to the server. I asked about any possible changes to server settings or stuff about that, but apparently nothing has changed there. The URL in question is Bivolino.com Does someone has any other ideas what I could be looking for. Thanks, Kind regards, Erik

302 error removing site from results
I have a client who had a screwy url structure based off of parameters and all. They hired a developer that added the keyword to the end of the url and set up 302 redirects to the new keyword included url. Since then the entire site has virtually gone missing in the results but it is not penalized. I put in a request with webmaster tools for reconsideration and they said there was no penalty. I only just found the 302 problem today and think this is probably the problem. Could this remove a site from the search results?

301 Redirect & re-use
I have an old site which is being moved to a new tld due to re-branding. I understand I would do a series of 301 redirects from the pages of the old site to capture the authority and move to the new site. However, at some point in the future (probably 1-2 years) we may want to re-use the old site again for a different brand (it has a good brand, just not for what we're going after). Question is - can a redirected site be re-used at some point in the future? And if so, which site would new authority (links, etc.) go to?
