If you run a Wordpress blog and you want to move your site to a new URL, Velvet Blues has just the tool for you.

One of the issues of moving domains is what to do with all the links in your posts that point to the old URL. If you know SQL, you could run a search and replace script right on your database, but if SQL isn’t your game, until now your only option is to manually check each post for URL references. Not a fun prospect if you have a lot of posts and like to link to your own posts.

Enter Update URLs, it will do the heavy lifting for you in an easy to use plugin. Just enter your old and new URLs and the plugin scours your posts and pages for the outdated URL and replaces it with the new one. A minute or so later you are done.

It is free and can be downloaded here.
