Hello! I've been reading a mix of articles about redirects and I still don't know what is going to work best. Many articles say to use a 301, but others say a 302 is best so you don't give link juice to your advertiser.
301 or 302 Redirects for Affiliate Links?

Hello!
I've been reading a mix of articles about redirects and I still don't know what is going to work best. Many articles say to use a 301, but others say a 302 is best so you don't give link juice to your advertiser.
So what I have is a blog with affiliate links. The links are internal and I'm using a 301 redirect in the .htaccess file. On my blog I am using my site: http://mysite.com/widgets.html (with rel="nofollow") and it works fine.
(ie)
# Redirects
redirect 301 /widgets.html http://money.widgets.com/idevaffiliate.php?id=1791
redirect 301 /screws.html http://money.screws.com/idevaffiliate.php?id=12861
In my BING webmaster tools the crawl information shows that I have 23 "301's". Not sure if that is bad? Should I be using 302 instead?
Google does not like affiliate links at all, so I'm trying to find the best way to still have some links but not have my site demoted because of them, nor pass any site PR to anywhere else.
Suggestions?
THANKS!
