Redirection

302 302 Found

A temporary redirect. The original URL keeps its ranking because search engines expect the content to come back.

Common causes

  • A/B tests, geo-redirects, login flows and maintenance detours.
  • Frameworks that default to 302 for every redirect — the most common cause of a permanent move being served as temporary.

How to fix it

  • If the move is permanent, change it to 301 so ranking signal transfers.
  • For temporary redirects that must not change the request method, prefer 307.
