Thread: Am I opening a can of worms?

My website is www.awesomelamb.com

Some time ago I inadvertantly hit delete on my folder for all 130+ pages of www.Awesomelamb.com/Store

I have put up a temporary index page for the store www.awesomelamb.com/Store/store.html while I have been reconstructing the pages (also adding more pages congruently).

However...with all those pages, I was finding it difficult to keep track of them and created folders for each catefory ie. www.awesomelamb.com/Store/menorah/newmenorahpage.html instead of www.awesomelamb.com/Store/menorah.html

Before I republish the index page for the store, ( www.awesomelamb.com/Store/store.html) I wanted to ask: when I republish will I need to create a redirect for each of the previously published pages that are still up? I know people are still finding them because I have received orders. Will Google have a fit because the pages were indexed?

Would it be better if I simply republish the updated pages as they were (that is, directly in the www.awesomelamb.com/Store/updatedpage.html

Am I on the brink of a second catastrophe by moving the files to folders? I guess that more than one question, heh?

Thanks for help

It would be easier for you to create a Ticket to ask Support to "restore from backup" your site rather than try to explain how things work so you can understand them.


(BlueVoda essentially "saves" page files within site-specific folders itself, so, if you are doing things properly, there is no need to move them around after deciding on a different scheme.)

Re doing all your pages, remember you not need to put a menu on each page, it makes it easier for re-creation of pages with this trick .
