Will a redirect have a big impact on SEO?

Question

Search Engine Optimization

Here is a question.
We were transferring from Yii to Wordpress, but the URL on the catalog changed a little
: site.ru/category/post-name
became: site.ru/catalog/category/post-name
Will the redirect strongly affect the positions or how to make the site not dipped in positions in the search?

Answer 1

If you make page-by-page 301 redirects, then there may or may not be a drawdown, depending on your luck. But even if it sags, it will soon (up to a month in my experience) return to its usual positions.
