Why did a large amount of 302-type & 307-type redirects appeared on my new WooCommerce store after data migration?

If there are lots of products and redirects on the Source store that need to be transferred to the WooCommerce platforms, Cart2Cart transfers 301 redirects as 301 redirects, and 302 redirects as 307 redirects. In this way, Cart2Cart ensures the URLs of your new WooCommerce store match those of your previous store, minimizing disruption to your SEO and user experience during the data migration process.

Specifically, during WooCommerce data migration, Cart2Cart carefully handles different types of redirects. A 301 redirect indicates a permanent move, while a 302 redirect signifies a temporary one. Because WooCommerce treats temporary redirects as 307 redirects, Cart2Cart converts 302 redirects from your source store to 307 redirects in WooCommerce. This ensures the intended behavior of your redirects is preserved after the migration.

To ensure data migration accuracy, Cart2Cart offers the service of transferring redirects during the migration process. If you have a large number of 302 redirects set up on your source store, these will be migrated as 307 redirects to your new WooCommerce store, maintaining the temporary redirect behavior. This is crucial for preserving SEO value and user experience.
