Welcome to the Q&A Forum

(1) an internal link between two pages on your website, (2) an external link from your website to another website

So in these two situations if a nofollow was needed would you use a 302 redirect?

Good point Alan on the paid links. Adding the nofollow would be following Google guidelines and there is risk in not following this.

OK Alan you are saying that if you put a link on your site that it would be a standard link but if another site paid you for a link that you would use a nofollow? Wouldn't that defeat the purpose of what they would be looking for if they paid for a link from your site. Not trying to be difficult just trying to understand. The 302 was set by the owner/developer of the site. In the case of internal linking linking lets say your page has way over a hundred internal links and you want to thin them out and sculpt the ranking of the pages. What would you use.

The nofollow was put in on a out going external  link from the site i am working on shows up as a 302. Is this the best way to approach a nofollow for external links? And would this be the best way for internal links within the site also?

My nofollow link is showing as a 302. Is this OK? Not looking to pass any juice along but don't want to be penalized either.

Thanks Buhrly
