Hi all, We're moving a website to another website and putting a 301 redirect on the old site. Google says that to keep most of the traffic in tact, to use the same page names. We plan on doing that but the new site is set up as .html and the one with the 301 redirect is .htm Example: We want to send "example.com/test.htm" to "example.com/test.html" Question: Do you think that one letter off will make a difference in Google forwarding the traffic? Experts only please. Thanks in advance!
Nevermind, I found the answer. For those that want to know... If you are making a 301 redirect for *each* file, then the change from .htm to .html will not hurt anything. It would only be a problem if you were globally redirecting all files with a single 301 redirect - that is when all files must match exactly.
