@jessie: It will not affect your previous SEO efforts. The permalink redirect plugin I used makes use of 301 redirects. I think the same is true with the plugin you mentioned. The 301 status tells the browser that your old permalink structure has moved permanently. 301 redirects are very crucial for search engines and other bots as it directs them to update their database with the new structure eventually dropping the old one.

archondigital,

I want to change my permalink structure to the form /%category%/%postname%/ but i am afraid it might cause problems. I have used dean’s permalink migration plugin before but i used a date-based permalink format. do you think this plugin will not cause my site to lose traffic if I will change my permalink structure to the above-given form? i’d really appreciate your opinion on this query. thanks in advance

@sohbet: thanks for what? Permalink migration went smoothly on the old domain. The new domain now has a better permalink structure

@Blog2u: 301 redirects will keep the backlinks working.

Wow, the big move. Haven't done it yet myself for our older blogs mainly because of the problem with backlinks not working anymore. Congrats on your successful migration. Blog2us last blog post..Pinoy Entrecarders Special

Hi all great information here and good thread to comment on.

Can I ask though – how did you get this picked up and into google news?

Very impressive that this blog is syndicated through Google and is it something that is just up to Google or you actively created?

Obviously this is a popular blog with great data so well done on your seo success..
