In reply to: 301 redirects and page rakingOh just re-read the OP – you are on the wrong forums entirely – you need to be here:
wordpress.com Forum: http://en.forums.wordpress.com/
Ah ha! That’ll be why none of this works for me then… Thanks!

In reply to: 301 redirects and page rakingHi Krishna,
Yes, I did have a look at the site Tara cited, but as I have no idea about WordPress lingo; I’m afraid I don’t know where my site’s root folder is; I can’t find the .htaccess file; I don’t know what software I’m using (FTP Client or otherwise), all I know is that I’m using wordpress.com; it doesn’t say how or why I need to edit the .htaccess file once I do find it, or what I’m supposed to do with it afterwards.
As I said, I’m a complete beginner and, forgive me, but because I am trying to learn step by step, and because I don’t know any better, the post appears to be the start of a ‘how-to’ guide but never actually gets to the ‘how-to’ bit.

In reply to: 301 redirects and page rakingHey guys, thanks for your replies.
I’ve verified my site with Google, but I’d like to set up a 301 redirect.
However, I am unsure of how to do this. Is there a simple guide? All I can find are pages explaining what a 301 redirect is, but not how to implement one.
Also, can I do it from my new site, as I can’t get into my old one now that it’s been closed?
Sorry – I need 301 for dummies!
