alightedme's dashboard

I'd agree with alightedme if you had that option (that's what I do when moving from other systems).

However, as far as I know, if it's hosted on Blogspot, there's no way to do 301s... they don't run server-side code that can modify the headers, and there's no FTP or .htaccess option. I wish this wasn't the case, but I'm not aware of any 301 Redirect methods that work without any of the above.

C..mon guys, you are thinking too primitive. In this era of permanent redirects why you are thinking of loosing traffic.. why you even have the visitor wait for 6 seconds. There should be zero waiting period ideally. If you could collect information about all existing URLs of blogger and apply 301 redirect on URL-by-URL basis you will not loose search enegine rankings. I used to work for a SEO company where we applied this technique when we changed the name of a cmpany. For first month, the traffic was down, however from next month it picked up gain. Hope it helps.

PS: You can search on google on how to apply 301 redirects for your specific case. If you are not very comfortable with applying redirects then post a project on Elance.com or getafreelancer.com and you could have all your work done for $100 or less.
