I forgot to upload a 'noindex' variation of one of the search pages, which meant it was 404ing. Thank you for the spot. I guess I should have clarified my thought on this subject a bit more. I am mainly thinking of 'really' established pages with a really clear link profile. Unless you are going to change all the back links (impossible) then you are at the whim of what weight Google is going to put on the redirect/PageRank/trust flow both now and in the future. I agree doing a url rewrite en-mass can be a good thing to do sometimes if the link weight is really well spread and the URL clean up will be keyword beneficial. By I have only seen a positive here if you do it early in the life cycle of the site. I appreciate the steer on W&P and the comment. Feel free to comment in the future you are most welcome.

Contact sent. On the subject of the 301's and mod rewrite: Not so sure I agree that it's a bad thing to do on an established site. Yes, it can drop your serps once G picks up on it, but it picks back up again after a couple of weeks. Ive also found that when Ive been forced to do it to get rid of any duplicate/bad pages. Ive gone higher in the rankings once I'm back in. Cheers Rob! Hi Rob
