So this is the really technical end of SEO for websites. A 302 redirect is a temporary way to redirect a user or search engine from one url to another. If done correctly Google doesn’t mind too much, as long as it is temporary. The original page is what Google gives a value to and it ranks your website accordingly, but having this temporary redirect in place for too long is not the best way to structure your website. There are ways to permanently redirect from an old url or page to the new one and get the new page ranking on its own merit with Google.
