noob – luckily feedreader looks after my feeds and all the links are easy changed so hasnt been too bad.

David- WordPress is great for its functionality and customisation. If you have the PR then I wouldnt make the move. Blogger will rank higher I think with google anyway as its their own product and they know how it works inside out which will always help with indexing.

The moved doesnt seem to have hurt me at all so far. I think it has actually helped in a way as I dont have listings for timchristie.com as well as the /blog anymore. I am guessing that reduces duplicate content which helps lift your stats in googles books. Over the last three days I seem to have had more search hits than ever before.

I wish I was using WordPress….. Blogger is great in some ways, but I really hate not being able to do something like you have done – changing the URLs and stuff. I don’t take too much to blogger’s Year/Month/Day/Postname style of naming things, and it would be great to change this. Maybe one day I’ll change over, but at the moment I’ve got a fairly high PageRank, and don’t want to mess it up in a hurry!

Hope all of this works out for you!

Cheers,

David Webb

good move. i think it’s best to have it on the root. garry is right about the permalink. it was a pain in the ass to fix all of feeds and sponsored link when i made the switch. should have used a plugin. darn it. im such a noob

Thanks Garry,

Makes sense to me especially from an SEO point of view. So all done.

Hey Tim,

I wanted to help you and tell you that if you are already kinda biting the bullet a little bit here then you might want to also update your permalink structure while you are at it too.

I have found better results using a permalink structure such as /postname/ or postname.php over using the year/month/day/postname/ setup. Since you are kinda starting over from scratch, you might want to kill two birds with one stone and update the permalink structure too.
