Mark,

Maybe you should implement an automatic redirect on your old page, so
someone visiting it will get automatically put on your new ones.  I
did this once:


<HTML>
   <META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh"
CONTENT="1;URL=http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Hills/2948/homeautom
ation.html">
<BODY>
I had to rename this page due to braindamage...
<BR>
It's now at <A
HREF="http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Hills/2948/homeautomation.htm
l">http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Hills/2948/homeautomation.html</
A>
<BR><BR>
Taking you there now...
</BODY>
</HTML>

After one second, it "refreshes" the visitor's browser to the new
address given in the META ... CONTENT section.  (This is assuming you
still own the compuserve area...)
