---- Does Google penalise 301 redirects to affiliate?

Hi eltercerhombre,

You are right that Google does not like affiliates, so we create the structure of links as if they are internal links, and when somebody clicks those links they are redirected to some other site...

Google might consider these as sneaky redirect?

Should that script pass some header like 301 or 302?

I am sure Nofollow to these links would be helpful, I am concerned that should we pass some headers in redirect script, and how this whole scenario is interpreted in terms of Google.... any kind of penalty or loss of value/pagerank to that webpage in particular or the whole site in general...
