Using 302s to redirect pages returning in 6 months
-
We are doing a 2-phase site redesign (in order to meet a deadline). An entire section of the site will not be available in the first phase, but will come back in 6 months. The question is, do we use 301s or 302s for those pages that will be coming back in 6 months? Is there a time limit on what is considered "temporary"?
thanks in advance!

Here is a helpful discussion on the same topic that took place in June 2011 and is still relevant.
