Welcome to the Q&A Forum

I have made loads of redirects as I renamed my pages a lot in the beginning of my SEO career, and it had no effect on my ranking as long as I made a 301 redirect.

However, I can not recommend to rename your pages unless it is absolute necessary as you should never fix something that ain't broken:-)

Hi,

Have you tried to fetch your pages too see if Google can read them?

See: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/6066468?hl=en

It is a good place to start.

BTW: I have tried something similar with a home built CMS that Google for some reason didn't like
