      I'm a newbie, and just got my first crawl diagnostics report. I was looking at the temporary redirects, and virtually all of them are trackback URLs from our blog (we use ourdomain.com/blog and Wordpress). The diagnostics report says they're 302 redirects. Is this problematic and, if so, can you suggest the best way to fix the problem?

      Thanks in advance for your help!

        Link juice does not flow though a 302 redirect (temp), you need to use a 301 redirect.(permanent)

        Having said that, bing will treat a 302 like a 301 if left in place long enouth.

            Hi Mario,

            Did anyone ever answer you on this, or did you figure it out?  I'm having the same issue?
