Is Redirecting hurts SEO?

[jameslarson]

yes, web webpage is redirecting to another page. It is not good for our website. The page should not be redirected.

Well, it depends, but in most cases, no. Redirects are not bad for SEO, but — as with so many things — only if you put them in place correctly. A bad implementation might cause all kinds of trouble, from loss of PageRank to loss of traffic.

Proper 301 redirect is SEO‑friendly - it passes link juice, preserves crawl budget and tells Google the URL moved permanently. The only red flag is a chain of redirects or a 302 to a thin page, which can dilute equity and cause indexation hiccups.
