I didn't know how to set up the redirect pointer thingie, because I'm really not technically savvy at all. So I called Wordpress support and they did it for me in a matter of minutes.

I made my last blog post on the former blog an announcement of sorts with a link to the new blog. I also activated a 'pointer' which would redirect all traffic from the previous domain to the current domain. I kept it activated for about a year until everyone eventually realized they were being redirected to a new domain. <br /><br />I'm not one to check stats or number of hits (I've always just blogged for my own entertainment) so I can't tell you if there was a change in viewership.

As fp web traffic, You could either run the two concurrently for a while or just put a hyperlink at the top of this blog to redirect people to the new site.Naomihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15680618332860733162noreply@blogger.com
