It's kind of hard to word this, but here it goes...
I am redesigning my site, and changing some of the file structures and not sure how it will affect people seeing my site. Currently my site and 26 subpages are listed in search engines.
main page - fightsonglyrics.com
subpage - fightsonglyrics.com/A, fightsonglyrics.com/B
each subpage lists all the songs for schools starting with letter A, B, and so on. If someone searches "alabama fight song" my subpage will show up in google fightsonglyrics.com/A . Currently if someone clicks on the google link it will take you to the correct page.
In my redesign process I am adding a page for each school. SO it will look something like fightsonglyrics.com/A/alabama.htm or fightsonglyrics.com/A/airforce.htm
It will help organize all the subpages on the ftp server. The problem is, when I make this change and upload all my new files... search engines will still display fightsonglyrics.com/A but when you click on that it will take you you an unauthorized access page because after my update /A will be a folder ... not a specific file.
See what I'm saying? Just wondering if there is a way to fix this? I could just make it fightsonglyrics.com/alabama ... and take out the /A all together.. but then I would have like 500 pages all unorganized.
Can I fix this, or do I just need to ride it out until search engines crawl my site after the update?
If this is the wrong forum, please move it.. thanks.
