Hi all

Wondered if you could help out an old fool??!!

I have a site and that site has backlinks (mainly to the home page) about 300 to be exact.

I want to move over to a blog but want to know how to keep the backlinks on the homepage.

As you can understand this most probably sounds a bit dumb so be gentle!!

I am not going to change the domain so can I just change over?

Thanks in advance...

    If the URLs are still the same. I think you aren´t going to miss any of these backlinks.

    They are pointing to the same url, the only thing is changing is the content.

    Just change the site to a blog now and the backlinks will be at the blogs homepage.

    Or if you want to keep your original homepage just add a /blog/ to your site.

    As long as the domain remains same you do not need to worry.

    Guest post links are effective when they are contextual and natural!!
