Blogger Redirect, is it Google friendly?

    So let's say my blog link was:
    http://makemoneyonline.blogspot.com/

    I built backlinks towards it, then I got a domain:
    http://www.makemoneyonline.com/

    Is the Blogger redirect seo friendly, letting me keep my search engine results, or not?

    Also, does the amount of hyphens in an url effect your result at all? Like "make-money-online.com" in comparison to "makemoneyonline"?

    Thanks.

    you need to do a 301 redirect to your new domain in order to keep your rankings, now about dashes.. from my experience you will have a hard time ranking for anything with two dashes, always try to register a domain without dashes.

    If you don't have LiveHeaders installed with Firefox Developer Toolbar, then you
    could find an online service that will check the headers for a 301 or 302 redirect.

    Try "check headers" in Google and I think you will find some help.

    Yes Blogger redirects are 301 and 100% seo friendly. Slowly all your blogspot URLs on Google will be replaced by the custom domain.
