Ning To Jamroom
Eventually I would point my domain to the Jamroom site yes, but not until I can be sure that I can retain my organic search traffic. How does the URL mapper work?

Ning To Jamroom
I am investigating the feasibility of shifting from Ning to Jamroom, in fact the Jamroom team are working on my import currently. So far so good, one major issue I must address is SEO, my 5 year established Ning site is very well indexed by the major search engines and that must continue for this migration to be successful.
How do I go about ensuring that my search traffic remains intact following a migration of this nature?
Have you migrated to Jamroom already? What would you do differently?

@brian, I see there is a service package to complete this task for me, is there anything missing from that or will it provide me with a fully functional port of my Ning site? Should/can I call someone to discuss it before purchase?
Many thanks

One last question, I'm a little nervous! This process doesn't alter my existing Ning site in any way does it? And if I make a total hash of it I can just start the whole Jamroom import from scratch? The question sounds a little daft I know, I am just being cautious, my Ning site is very active and I don't want any surprises on the the live site.

Thanks for getting back to me Paul, so just to confirm, no email will be sent unless I send it myself? It's not an automated action that will occur simply by importing the users?

I was about to start the process when I saw this;
----
Enter the system name of the Ning site you are importing from. This will be used in the email that is sent to all Ning members after import to notify them of their new login credentials.
----
Is that an automated email, or can I control what is going to get sent out. I don;t want my users to know anything is changing at the moment. Once all functioning correctly and the new site is live, then I will do it.
Thanks
