I set up a 301 permanently redirect for few urls using an index.php file at old location. Google changed urls in index within a week (new ones replaced old) and kept same positions more or less. Perfect, I might say :P
With Live Search it's a different matter though. Old urls are disappearing from index, but new ones nowhere to be found! Is this a normal procedure for Live? Will appreciate some feedback and thanks for your help.
Pasting header server responses here (all seems ok):
#1 Server Response: OLD URL HTTP Status Code: HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently Connection: close Date: Fri, 06 Mar 2009 13:15:12 GMT Server: Microsoft-IIS/6.0 X-Powered-By: ASP.NET X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.6 Location: NEW URL Content-type: text/html Redirect Target: NEW URL
#2 Server Response: NEW URL HTTP Status Code: HTTP/1.1 200 OK
