Advance notice – Bonanzle links will very soon ‘redirect’ to Bonanza

Hi everyone – this is a quick advance notice that late tomorrow evening we will implement the address/URL redirect so all Bonanzle.com URLs will redirect automatically to their corresponding Bonanza.com URLs.  This includes all pages on the site like your items, your booth, and, of course, the Bonanza homepage.  For example, www.bonanzle.com/mybooth will seamlessly send the visitor to www.bonanza.com/mybooth.

What do you need to do?
Right away?  Nothing.  Eventually it would be nice if you changed any site or blog links to the new URL as this is better for search engine ranking, but nothing will break.  Your old Bonanzle.com links will simply redirect to the new ones.

How long will the redirect work?
Indefinitely.  There is no time table to turn it off so links to Bonanzle will continue to redirect automatically for a long time.

I have lots of other questions!  Where do I go for help?
Check out our FAQ page on the change. 

And thanks all for your patience as we implement this big change!

Alex thanks for letting us know what’s going on. Keep us posted!

Thanks Alex – It is indeed nice and refreshing to have advance notice so one can prepare if need be and/or give management a heads up as to why x idea is not a good one…. etc… (coupon available) – Bill can tell ya ’bout that one… Anyhoo..
Thanks for the notice and update. Is there any QA? staging this to test on a server before hititng the big shiny switch or?… you never know what will be impacted where….
Thanks!

Thanks Alex.
When I click on one of my items I find on Google it takes me to Bonanzle. Will those redirect too? I noticed that all of my items on google have Bonanzle on them.

Thanks for the update :-) Good to hear no immediate changes need to be made, as I move slow.

alexwberg says: 09/27/10 at 17:28:27

@ yeshuazgirl – we’ve done some testing on our end, but redirects like this are typically a quick read. They either just work or they don’t. Bill is going to keep a close eye on this.

alexwberg says: 09/27/10 at 17:29:19

@gran12345 – yep, Google links will redirect too. Any link will. Even one you manually type into your browser (as Bonanzle) will redirect to Bonanza.

Lisas_TX_Treasures says: 09/27/10 at 17:39:12

This is great, but what about the folks that don’t check forum posts. Are you all going to be able to generate a site wide email to all members?

Just a thought.

Also… does this mean I dont have to reprogram my google checkout?

BeautifulBooks says: 09/27/10 at 17:48:14

Thanks, Alex, for keeping in touch with the good news.

IcedLilac says: 09/27/10 at 17:54:14

Thank you for this Heads Up, Alex. Have a great week!

Thanks for the heads up.

Thanks for the heads up!!!

EuropeanGoodies says: 09/27/10 at 23:40:48

Well, just what I said: the re-direct will be working for a long time.
Good thing! And thank you guys.

alexwberg says: 09/27/10 at 23:47:58

@Lisas_TX_Treasures – no plans for an email as no action is required. You do not need to change your checkout URL.

polzar says: 09/28/10 at 00:25:17

Great news… Thanks Alex for the heads-up…

VINTAGECHIC817 says: 09/28/10 at 03:35:10

Great….Thanks for all the hard work everyone is doing for us…

yeshuazgirl says: 09/28/10 at 03:44:49

Thanks again

ZenGirl says: 09/28/10 at 04:37:38

Thanks for the heads up. Means I won’t be able to read my page due to need for high resolution. Hope you keep working on this problem, so EVERYONE can enjoy the benefits of the new site.

angiesjewelry says: 09/28/10 at 04:37:55

Great news ! Thank you ! I had so many links out there that I could never have found them all and it would have been a pity. Now, all will be fine.

ZenGirl says: 09/28/10 at 05:01:20

OMG, I can see my whole page. Thanks guys! That was a bit of terrific work.

pugs says: 09/28/10 at 05:52:04

thanks,

I do think an email should go out to all members since only a % comes to the forum and not all of them read the blog

they also need to be told to change their google checkout callback and their google anyalytics settings

and yes, we have been told both of these things HAVE to be done

AdventuresAndHobbies says: 09/28/10 at 06:14:35

Alex, Thank you for the update. Good to know the redirects will be automatic.

Just a thought regarding the discussion about notifying all members. Maybe you could post a note that there are new blog entries under the Bonanza Announcements section on everyone’s My Bonanza page. At least that way we would be aware that there is a new blog post and can come check it out for details.

Woodyswag says: 09/28/10 at 06:59:13

Thank you so much Alex for the update. We were on vacation and just got back. So does this mean that Bonanzle will no longer exist, but just Bonanza?

vinewood says: 09/28/10 at 07:06:38

Alex , thank you , for the great work and update !!!

AutumnLeaves says: 09/28/10 at 07:30:36

You say Bill is keeping a close eye on this or keeping his eyes closed and fingers crossed? LOL
Reason number 2 I love this site, there is never a dull moment. Great job guys.

FlyingMonkeyFinds says: 09/28/10 at 07:42:49

So good to know, glad you guys keep us in the loop!

alexwberg says: 09/28/10 at 17:23:21

Hi Pugs – you don’t need to change the callback URL and the FAQ will be updated this evening. I’m looking into any changes needed (or not) to Google Analytics.

alexwberg says: 09/28/10 at 23:33:10

The redirect is now live.

JewelryLocker says: 10/12/10 at 08:55:06

Okay, so … what do we call ourselves now? Bonanza-lers? Cheers!
