150 products 301 redirect to HOME page, any impact?

[BigBlaze205]

If redirect 150 products to the home page, will I be penalize?

It does not look like I can have access to cPanel on this platform, BigCommerce and i moves my old domain to this plateforme, the only option I might have his to redirect everythings to home page.

Thank you,

There is no cap on the number of 301 redirects that you can do although it is recommended to do the 301 not just to the home page but to the specific pages that you have replaced on the new site.

Yes, better to 301 them to their most relevant pages. If they are pages with little to no traffic and no pr and have no relevant similar page it's better to just let them 404. Google is fine with pages 404ing and dying out. Just don't keep them in your site navigation  and remove them from your sitemap.xml files and anywhere else you might be referencing them from within your sites.
