[wp-hackers] htaccess necessary?

[John Bloch]

I'm no SEO expert, but I can't imagine it would hurt to resubmit to google.
Personally, I use the plugin 'google xml sitemaps' for all that stuff. It
creates a very comprehensive sitemap (with lots of adjustable settings), and
auto submits it to google, bing, and ask.com.
