URL structure on moving from old nukedit site to Drupal

[chunki]

I am currently rebuilding a site in Drupal. The old site was in Nukedit and all the urls end in .asp.

Given the new urls will not end in .asp is there any point in matching the rest of the url or will using 301 redirects (to better seo'd pages) be sufficient to minimise any (temporary) ranking loss?

Just do 301's and you should be all set. Also watch for any 404's once the site is migrated to make sure you did not miss anything. Also, try to build some new links to the new pages over a period of time, slow and steady...

Good Luck.

Many thanks for the quick reply!
