How do you get google to change the index of a page ??
Guys & Gals,
I am currently updating my php / mysql driven site, to mod-rewrite the
dynamic URLs to feux static ones.
I would like google to index the new URLs, whilst obviously underneath
still using the old ones.
I have written some mod-rewrites for the new URLs which work fine. So I
guess my question is, will that be enough to get google to index the
new pages, if my site now refers to the new URLs, or will google
continue to index the old URLs as these are still valid, and only being
covered up by mod-rewrites ??
I have tested one page, which has taken 3 - 4 months to index and PR
the new url, and now also the cache of the old version of the page
points to the new url. Is this likely to get penalised as there is now
a duplicate, or as google has pointed the old page to the new, will it
be ok, and google will eventually drop the old cache ???
All thoughts welcome.
