302 redirects help

[mullsey]

Hello,

I have a Magento ecommerce store and my latest seomoz crawl report shows over 10,000 302 redirects.

An example is this below

https://jsshirts.com.au/wishlist/index/add/product/160/

which is being redirected to http://jsshirts.com.au/enable-cookies

Can anyone please help me with a solution to help with this problem.

Many thanks

Your first URL is linking to the SEOmoz campaign link so it's not possible to see what it actually is. Can you edit it?

From the snippet I can see it appears to be a wishlist which I would suggest noindexing.

You might also want to search the Magento forums to see if anyone has had a similar issue.

Although I cannot see the whole initial URL, it might be that all those 10,000 pages are being redirected to that enable-cookies URL (like if the content was behind a login page and therefore if you are not logged in, all URLs will be redirected to the login page to access the content).

Did you change anything on the site that requires visitors to have the cookies enabled to work?

Could this be related to the European Cookie legislation, where visitors should opt-in to cookies before they start using your site (see http://www.ico.gov.uk/)?

Cheers
