Home - Sitemap

What happens now...

This won't be much of a problem for the search engines. They will index the new pages and any page changes that you made and will have no problem updating. The only trouble would be page rank. If you have a page called home.html and rename it to home.htm you would lose whatever pagerank you built up.

as long as you are only changing the content, there will be no problems with the search engines. they will keep visiting and indexing.

So even if i change what my pages are called like blahblahhome.index to blahblah.whatever.htm it will only effect my PageRank? Not a probelm really cause I have no PagRank yet. Is that correct? fyrehawg

that's right. the pagerank would be lost but nothing else will be effected. the spider will visit, realize the difference in pages and on the next index of the engine all will be well. this will probably only take a few days for google.

The more you change, the more your site will be crawled... It definantly isn't a problem for content to be changed... and like you said it was fairly new anyways... You got it.. If you had no page rank already, then changing pages and page names will definantly not hurt you in the least... Just try not to get rid of pages to often (change content fine) but the actual page names themselves in the future..(like was said above)

thats some good advice that you guys have given.. thanks!!
