Compare URLs with 302 redirects

[levalencia1]

Hello

I have a store which was developed in Magento.

I have about 8300 errors like this:

URL: http://www.theprinterdepo.com/catalog/product_compare/add/product/100/uenc/aHR0cDovL3d3dy50aGVwcmludGVyZGVwby5jb20vcHJpbnRlci1wYXJ0cy5odG1sP3A9NA,,/

1 Warning

• 302 (Temporary Redirect)

  Found 3 days ago

  <dl>

  <dt>Redirects to</dt>

  <dt>http://goo.gl/XMaZg</dt>

  <dd>Description</dd>

  <dd>Using a 302 redirect will cause search engine crawlers to treat the redirect as temporary and not pass any link juice (ranking power). We highly recommend that you replace 302 redirects with 301 redirects.</dd>

  </dl>

  <a class="more expanded">Minimize</a>

These URLs, are generated by magento by the COMPARE feature.

In my store we bought an extension called SEO Enterprise Suite and I asked the developers(www.mageworx) about this error.  Their answer is:

Sorry for the late reply. Our extension adds NOINDEX,FOLLOW tag to compare and cookies pages so that they won't be indexed. I do not think that these redirects can hurt your SEO because these pages won't be indexed at all.

The question is:

What should I do? Is there anyway that SEOMOZ ignores these URLs?  What should I do next, I just dont like to have that HIGH number of errors and warnings.

Thank you

Thanks in advance

As I see your proble goes further than redirection issue. When I first clicked http://www.theprinterdepo.com/catalog/product_compare/add/product/100/uenc/aHR0cDovL3d3dy50aGVwcmludGVyZGVwby5jb20vcHJpbnRlci1wYXJ0cy5odG1sP3A9NA,,/ it took me to http://goo.gl/XMaZg but when I clicked it for the second time it added the product to the comparison list:

So when I was first redirected that was due to the page uses cookies and it supposed that cookies are not enabled on my computer so it redirected me to http://goo.gl/XMaZg to tell me to turn cookies on. But it got it wrong as for the second time I could add the product to the list without doing any setting with cookies so there must be some sort of trouble with this feature and this causes the redirection.to http://goo.gl/XMaZg. Should the program get it right is cookies are turned on, or should you use session ids besides cookies, redirections would not be present anymore.
