Not sure if this should be in this forum or SEO...but here goes.
I've been running a Ruby on Rails blog here for about 3 months off of blogspot, railsonedge.blogspot.com. I just recently got a server and the domain railsonedge.com, so I would like to migrate my blog over to my own personal server, and on a different blogging platform(either wordpress or a Rails-based).
I've done a little SEO, but I am not hardcore into it. I've got very good ranking for the niches I am targetting.
SEO-wise - is there anyway to avoid my new URL being sandboxed and get google pointing at/indexing my new URL instead of the old one?
I'm planning on expanding out railsonedge from just a blog and adding in several other cool things, hopefully soon, I'm just trying to figure out the best way to go about it.
I'm not sure how many Rails folks are out there, does anyone know how well Wordpress compares to something written in Rails, like Mephisto?
