I have the following URL for affiliates:
http://www.mydomain.com/affiliates/partners/partnerName.do?url=http://www.mydomain.com/product/3
The value of url will change all the time.
For this, I have used a 302 redirect. I chose to do this because http://www.mydomain.com/affiliates/partners/partnerName.do
can be redirected to several pages (because the url parameter can equal anything) and not just one page. I believe this is the correct thing to do, but someone from our marketing department told me not to use 302 redirects and to use a 301 redirect, because several SEO articles say 302 redirects are bad. I just want to confirm that the 302 redirect is the proper redirect to use for this particular case.
