Redirect your old blog or web address to newer one after changing your domain name without losing your blog readers
There may be a number of reasons that you are going from your old web address or blogger address to a new address. Some times you may be going from your blogger (example.blogspot.com) to Wordpress (example.wordpress.com) . So that it is really very important to introduce your blog readers about your new changes. One method for doing is just introduce a pop up into your blog or an advertisement by telling that your new content will be available on your new website and give the url. But in most cases users will not notice about the changes and they are skipped from visiting your new website. So in that case you have to introduce an automated redirect link to your blogger so that whenever a user visits your blog after a certain time it will automatically redirect the user to your newer web address or site. For the redirection it is very easy for a user by simply adding an html code in the blogger template.
Before adding this code you have to think about the user twice. Because redirecting users to a new url which has an entirely different content may cause bad impact on your site. So be careful before adding these kinds of automated redirecting codes to your old blogs.

Step 1:
