Permalinks Migration Plugin for wordpress

Following from my SEO Tip yesterday, if you decide to reorganize your permanent links for better search engine optimization, then I found a killer plugin that will help you migrate your old permanent links to your new one. Basically you do the following :-

1)Download and Install the Permalinks Migration Plugin for wordpress.
2)Activate the Plugin in your plugin manager.
3)Go To your admin panel->options->PermalinksMigration and set the old permanlink structure of your site. Mine was /%post_id%/%postname%/
4)Go To your admin panel->options->Permalinks and change the new permalink structure to what you want. I changed mine to /%category%/postname%/
5)Check your old indexed pages in Google to see if it redirects to your new permalink structure.

SEO Tip

I came across a useful tip on Search Engine Optimisation from Andrew Wee’s blog. Andrew Wee writes on interesting topics such as Affiliate Marketing, Social Traffic and Blogging and has managed to gather a huge following in a short space of time.

He tip involves changing the Permanent Link Structures on your blog assuming your categories are optimized for appropriate keywords, so that the search engines will send you more targeted traffic.

I urge caution if you decide to follow his tip and read his blog post thoroughly if you decide to go ahead because some of your links in Google wouldn’t work until Google re-indexes your new links.
