QuestionIs it a good idea (on how to improve SEO) and how should I do it (using a 301 perhaps)? Pin

Hello all,

I'm trying to improve the SEO for the web site of the company where I work.

At the beginning the site was developed by other people that put lots of underscores in the file names.

Like: www.mydomain.com/this_is_a_nice_looking_address_full_of_underscores.html

I've read in some SEO optimization sites that this is not a good practice and that should be avoided. Also it seems that Matt Cutts in some videos defend the dashes versus underscores... so it should be better having dashes than underscores in any web page file name.

Like: www.mydomain.com/this-was-a-nice-looking-address-full-of-underscores-that-now-has-dashes.html

If I decide to change all my site file names to new ones without underscores but with dashes...

I've already made several actions to improve the web positioning and I would not like to loose them... Will this mean that I will have to keep the old names and redirect to the new names for a while? How should I make that redirection to avoid duplicated content?

Is it needed to redirect? (I understand it is as Google et al will have the old addresses in their databases).
If I would like to make those redirects... where should I do them and how?

Thank you! Thumbs Up | :thumbsup:
