Recovery from URL structure change?
- by Dejan Pelzel
in July this year, we have changed the URL structure of the website from:
Post: domain.com/blog/post/986/dance/heart-beats-dance-video-by-chinatsu/
Category: domain.com/blog/index/cosplay/
to
Post: domain.com/dance/heart-beats-dance-video-by-chinatsu-986/
Category: domain.com/cosplay/
Everything was (supposedly) properly redirected with 301 redirects and it first seemed that the traffic returned after a couple of days, but it has now been close to 2 months and things keep going worse although Google is slowly indexing the changes.
What is worrying me even more is that the Pages crawled per day from Webmaster Tools started drastically dropping a few days ago and has just reached a new low in months (from over 2000 to 700).
Should I be worried or will things sort out eventually?
