It's not about indexing, it's about searching. I have a ton of pages indexed and I'd like more google organic search results, here's what Matt Cutts from google said:
"So if you have a url like word1_word2, Google will only return that page if the user searches for word1_word2 (which almost never happens). If you have a url like word1-word2, that page can be returned for the searches word1, word2, and even “word1 word2″."
Indexing is great and all, but you'll get pulled up in more searches if you use dashes instead of underscores. I'm going to give this a shot and see what happens once I figure out the 301 redirect stuff... Anyone have any tips on changing the url structure and properly redirecting so I don't lose any of the current searches?
