On Moving to a New Domain

My main website zapped by Google’s Jagger updates I do something I’ve often wanted to do: move ‘content’ (quotes because this content is strictly personal writings that do have meaning to their author) to a new domain.

Last Sunday I registered the new domain. DNS information propagates quickly nowadays. Within three hours I had the 900+ pages transferred and setup my 301 redirect.

And I added a sitemap.

As of today a site:mydomain.org shows half of my pages. Not bad for five days I’d say.

Page Rank? I don’t care about Google PR that much. It’ll show up in due time.

The site is getting indexed quickly and the traffic is fine.
