Questions
301 or 302: which redirect should I use?
Use 301 (or 308) when a page has moved for good, for example after changing domains or URLs. Search engines then transfer the ranking to the new address. Use 302 (or 307) only for temporary moves, like a maintenance page.
Why are redirect chains bad?
Each hop adds a network round trip, so pages open slower, especially on mobile. Search engines may also stop following long chains. Point links and old URLs straight at the final address.
What is a redirect loop?
Two or more addresses that redirect to each other, so the browser never reaches a page and shows "too many redirects". It often happens when both the server and a CDN force HTTPS or www differently.
