What is 301 and 302 redirection? - Site Owners Forums

larryfinch · 09-28-2012, 06:57 AM

When you redirect your domain name using a 301 redirect, it sends visitors to the specified site with a "301 Moved Permanently" HTTP response. The HTTP 301 response code tells user-agents (including search engines) the location has permanently moved.
A 302 redirect sends visitors to the specified site indicating a "302 Found" HTTP response. The HTTP 302 response code tells user-agents (including search engines) that the location has temporarily moved.
