With this method, all my reviews are in one directory separated by type, (accessories, hardware, games, cheats, etc.) This sounds like a good idea, but then would I go in and change all of the files that follow the current decent structure? Even though they are fine, would I need to change them to this new structure? I guess it’s a matter of consistency, but if from now on if I just use the new structure, I should be fine… Right? |

With any medium to large site that is logically organized into subsections, anything which helps you keep the files straight is probably the best system for you. So if you are already making filename changes, this would be an good time to make directory changes now that make more sense to you and make it easier for you to keep the site updated.
You could follow the procedure I suggested above for making page name changes, and if you're doing that it isn't any more difficult to change the directory name as well as the file name in the redirection page.
If all that seems like too much work, the alternative is to use the
.htacess file to redirect, assuming you are on a server which supports that (UNIX/Linux Apache servers basically).
