All of my incoming links will soon be in the form of <a href=http://www.mysite.com/?ref=anothersite>Click Here</a> I've done 301 redirects to strip off the parameters (just styling variables). So, all of the links will point to www.mysite.com . Question: is there such a thing as a penalty for too many 301 redirects, or is this method fine for passing PageRank to my site? Thanks!
I've seen others do the same without any obvious problems. Just make certain all the headers output are 301s and 200s, with no 302s.
