Redirects are designed to help you keep the flow of your website while redirecting users and search engines to the new location for content that has moved. Here you can specify a redirect in the form, http://domain.com/redirectname that will instantly take you to any web address you specify.
A temporary redirect is used for content that may have moved to a new location, but isn’t going to be there forever. This sort of redirect generates a 302 (resource has moved temporarily). It doesn’t much matter to end users, but this code tells search engines not to update the resource location with the new URL. A permanent redirect (which generates a 301 code) tells search engines that the new location is permanent and they should update their records and stop linking to the old URL for that resource.
