Do ad clicks have referrer information from my site?

Since our system uses 301 redirects on every ad click and not 302 redirects, all referrer details are retained. If someone clicks on an ad on your website and goes to the advertiser's website through our click tracking system, the advertiser would see referrer information in request/traffic logs as if this visitor came from your site and not our tracking servers.

301 and 302 redirects are header responses from our servers to redirect visitors to some other location. However, there are significant differences between the two. One is better than the other and we use 301 redirects on all ad serving clicks.

A "301 Moved Permanently" redirect is search-engine friendly as it helps them correctly rank and locate your webpages. Additionally, it retains the original referrer information and contains no reference to our ad serving system.

A "302 Found" redirect might confuse the search engines and also alters the visitor details before passing to the destination URL.
