    Question Urgent help needed on section's url change :(

    Hi all

    I have a serious problem with http://UEFAEuro2012Odds.com . I have created the section pages and 3 days after creation, changed their url's. But before that change Google has indexed the url's and now i see from the statistics that, the people searchin for Google, lead to the wrong addresses (previous url's) and it gives 404 html error to them). What shall i do for a fast action ? Can i remove them from Google's index ? In webmasters tools it does not show the pages as crawling error yet because the site is 5 days old.

    Shall i restore the previous addresses ? What shall i do ?

    Thanks a lot

    Do a redirect in htaccess and 301 them to the new address.

    I would still do a 301 redirect and try to get google to look at the new url as soon as possible.

    Many thanks. I have done a redirect via Redirect Plugin for WordPress. It works perfectly. It is a 301 redirect. Does it matter doing with a plugin ? Or should it be via htaccess ? Many thanks

    Just use redirection plugin and keep your htaccess file cleaner since in the future you might need to redirect more pages. If you don't see google updating your pages then maybe update htaccess and redirect there to get the new pages indexed. Wouldn't hurt to post your new links here as well.
