: SEO impact of static inbound link that redirects internally I have a tool where a user can generate a HTML link to my site for use on their site. The link is to a redirect page that redirects

I have a tool where a user can generate a HTML link to my site for use on their site. The link is to a redirect page that redirects internally based on a calculation on the URL parameters. For example, link is example.com/2015-11-09 and the redirect calculates the difference between today's date and the URL parameter date. It then redirects to that URL, i.e. example.com/diff/1, tomorrow it would be example.com/diff/2.

Since the landing URL changes but original inbound link doesn't, would this type of link have a negative impact on overall site SEO?

I do not think this would have a negative impact on anything, but I am not google so I know nothing.
If you want to avoid the redirect you could use mod rewrite and use it to give the '2015-11-09' as parameter to your script which would show the appropriate content. This way there would not be a redirect at all.
