Will forwarding domains hurt my SERP?

Hi, I hope someone can help me with this "newbie" question.

I currently park all my domains for sale at Sedo. But I am considering forwarding them to individual listing pages on my own website instead.

So, for example I would forward xyz.com to mywebsite.com/zyx.com and abcdef.com to mywebsite.com/abcdef.com and so on.

My question is, will Google and other search engines consider this redirected traffic to my pages as "unnatural traffic" and punish my site?

Any input greatly appreciated!

If you use things like no_url_shorteners or cli.gs then such redirection do hurt SERP value. I mean you need some linkbacks and those links are masked by another domain. This surely hurts SERP value.

One thing to note here is they'll not punish you for that. But you'll not get link juice,that's it.

Thanks for the feedback. I will not use things like that, just regular forwarding of my domains. So I guess it should be okay, although it may not improve my SERP.
