Considering the LA Times' transition away from Blogspot, what are some best practices for content creators migrating platforms to ensure minimal loss of search traffic?

Best practices include: Implementing 301 redirects from old URLs to new URLs, creating a sitemap for the new website and submitting it to Google Search Console, notifying Google of the change of address via Search Console, ensuring the new website is mobile-friendly, and maintaining high-quality content that is relevant to user search queries. Internal linking between old and new content can also help.
