    In assessing QS, does google bot recognize a header redirect:

    <?php
    header("location: ");
    break;
    ?>


    I have some content on the page after the redirect but the user will never see it.

    yea thats a standard 301 redirect which google will follow. Its best to use a jumpscript and then dissallow that script OR use javascript instead of php which google wont follow

    it's a 302 unless he specifies header("HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently");

    if you do a js redirect, wouldn't you be caught when they do manual quality checks of sites?
