        I assume you are using a 301 redirect for this (moved permanently)? Provided the correct redirects are in place there is no reason why your SEO should suffer.

          I don't see the need of redirecting! The Keywords in the path of an URL don't really matter in termes of Seo. So why do you do this? I checked the website (with a fast internet connection): This site is slow as hell!

            I assume he has his own reasons for the redirect but yes - that site is loading painfully slow.

              Thanks for your comment. I thought keywords in the URL contribute to SEO performance. Is this not correct?

              Thanks

                  As keywords in the path are only a realy tiny little piece in Seo, you can neglect them in your case. Instead, get valuable backlinks with the needed keywords.

                    This can't be answered in a reply like this... Sorry, but you should check your website with a nice little Google Tool: http://pagespeed.googlelabs.com/

                    And take advantage of the Google webmaster tools under http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/
