I have around 40 pages on my website. I also have a WordPress blog. I would like to shift my website to this blog. When I transfer the website to the blog, I want to transfer its pages to the blog as pages and not blog posts. Would that be possible.
The existing pages on the website have the URLs like;
www.xyz.com/article1.htm www.xyz.com/article2.htm www.xyz.com/article3.htm
When I create a blog, I want these links to be redirected to new links on the blog, like:
www.xyz.com/article1.htm
should redirect to www.newblog.wordpress.com/2009/09/09/article1.htm
www.xyz.com/article2.htm
should redirect to www.newblog.wordpress.com/2009/09/09/article2.htm
www.xyz.com/article3.htm
should redirect to www.newblog.wordpress.com/2009/09/09/article3.htm
and so on.
How can I do this?
Also could existing RSS feeds to the current blog, be updated/migrated or redirected after this transfer?
Thanks
I would highly recommend the redirection plugin for this.
It’s quick and easy to use and manages everything inside the WordPress admin.

This is one we’re using and it seems to do a pretty good job 🙂
