Moving from html to wordpress site - 301's

[sfrediktru8]

Hello,

I recently took control of my website from a web designer.  I have been reading as much as I can regards SEO etc to make long term improvements to my site.

The site was a basic 4 page website for a local cleaning company.  Consisting of a homepage, services page, testimonial and contact page.  The site performed reasonably given it's lack of detail or SEO but probably only because the level of competition isn't great.

I am in the process of rebuilding the site in wordpress and with SEO in mind I intend to have more than 1 page regards services.  I have 301'd my services.html page to my number 1 keyword term to gain any little link juice that is available.

Now to my questions...

Should I be doing this with the other pages?  Is it worth 301'ing my contact us page?  Is there anything to be gained by doing so?

Again should I 301 the index.html to the new homepage?  Been reading about this and the issues relating to loops etc but cannot find a definite answer regards the need?

Last scenario - lets say my testimonials.html page has some link juice would it be beneficial to 301 that to 1 of my new service pages to give that a kick start as opposed to making a less important page like another testimonials page more powerful?

Hope this makes sense, I am a beginner just thinking out loud.

Thanks

I would honestly redirect the whole site, then redirect the specific pages to the most relevant new pages.

Will redirect the old pages to all the most relevant new pages.
