: Will redirecting of the parent URL affect the children URL? my website has this URL : (A) http://www.mysite.com/book/name-of-book/12345 This url will show to the detailed information of a book
my website has this URL :
(A) www.mysite.com/book/name-of-book/12345
This url will show to the detailed information of a book with ID=12345
When user skips the "/12345" part in the url, (i.e. (B) www.mysite.com/book/name-of-book ), the user will be redirected (302 redirect) to this page:
(C) www.mysite.com/search/name-of-book
which searches all books that contains the word "name, of, book".
As the url (B) is actually the "parent folder" of url (A), so in terms of SEO, will redirecting (B) to (C) cause any negative effect on (A)?

No that wouldn't be an issue, as long as you make sure that the entire path exists. But why is there a redirect there? if he leaves out the 12345 he doesn't have to be redirected, right? If he does have to be redirected, make it a 301 and not a 302.
Every URL is independent of another. So if URL B is a redirect it won't affect URL A.
