  I have a doubt about upgrading a blog.
  I don’t know what will happen with older links to my blog when I upgrade my blog.
  An older article with an URL http://myblog.wordpress.com/thetitleofthearticle will be also accessible by myblog.com/thetitleofthearticle or also by the older URL?

  Best regards,
  Baloncestero

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Yes, all the old links will still work, it`s just that there will also be a NEW link as well.

  That is IF we are talking about a WordPress.com blog, and WordPress.com blogs do not have URLs like that.

  Ok, if I have understood it, older articles will have two URL: the older one and the new one by the upgrading,

  But what happen with the new articles? I supposed the new articles will have only the new type of URL…

  But about the visitors, I supposed that both types of URL are actives in order to add to the same counter

  Yes, both types of URL are active for both past and future posts.
