How can fix 302 and 301? which is best practice for SEO? how i save my crawl budget?
Anyone can help me?
Having recently optimized my site with Google Search Console, I've seen a significant boost in traffic. Focusing on rich snippets really made my games stand out—definitely worth exploring!
Use 301 redirects when a page has been permanently moved, as they pass ranking signals and are the recommended choice for SEO. Use 302 redirects only for temporary changes, since search engines may continue indexing the original URL. To help preserve crawl budget, avoid unnecessary redirect chains and loops, keep your internal links pointing directly to the final destination, and remove redirects that are no longer needed.

For SEO, 301 redirects are the best choice when a page has been permanently moved because they pass ranking signals and tell search engines to update their index. 302 redirects should only be used for temporary changes, such as maintenance or short-term promotions.
To help with crawl budget, avoid redirect chains and loops, keep your XML sitemap updated with only canonical URLs, fix broken internal links, and make sure your internal links point directly to the final destination instead of a redirected URL. Google Search Console's Indexing and Page Indexing reports are a good place to identify these issues.
Use 301 for permanent changes, keep redirects minimal, and ensure Googlebot spends time crawling valuable pages only.
I've found that improving category pages can sometimes be more effective than optimizing individual product pages, especially when the store has a large catalog. Internal linking and clear category structure also seem to help search engines discover newer products faster.
For SEO, use 301 (permanent) redirects when a page's URL changes permanently—as this passes on ranking signals—and reserve 302 redirects for temporary changes. To optimize your crawl budget, avoid redirect chains, keep your sitemap updated with canonical URLs, fix broken internal links, and focus on your internal linking structure and category pages alongside your product pages.
