Do the redirects from my silo structure impact rankings?

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to see if anyone's familiar with this. My main site is currently structured as a physical silo using pages to act as category pages. I have categories set up for the posts I write and the posts are then displayed on my category page using a plugin.

I noticed on my GSC that all my published posts are showing up as a "page with redirect" and are not indexed because the posts are indexed via the new URL I've assigned with a permalink manager. This is fine considering the correct URLs are being indexed, but will this confuse Google over time? The silo is set up correctly from what I can tell, and I've always gotten great organic traffic. Just wondering if it could be a concern in the long term.

Thanks in advance!

Given your situation, this is perfectly normal. 'Page with redirect' will show up on any pages that have been redirected.

Google has crawled your page, recognized the redirect, and only indexes the new URL.

As long as 'Page with redirect' isn't showing up on pages you didn't mean to redirect, you should be fine.
