Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi Elias

Thanks for answering.  We are not trying to pass any link value to the affiliate site.  We just want to make the links look 'pretty' rather than a url of random numbers and letters.

When SEO moz completes a crawl it shows these redirects as 302 redirects.  We don't want to pass link value to the affiliate site so we didn't use a 301 redirect.

So does the 302 redirect potential hurt rankings or look spammy?

Any suggestions or recommended plugins?

Thanks

Jason

Hi,

I have used a simple php redirect for one site that it used for an affiliate link. Always used it, cant remember the exact reason I did but most likely to make the url pretty

On the crawl stats of this domain it shows as a 302 redirect - does this have any issues?

What do people recommend for affiliate links? Cloaking? Tracking?

There are a number of wordpress plugins available that seem to be aimed at affiliate links, any recommendations? I assume that they will still be classed as 302's.

Any advice gratefully received.

Thanks

Jason
