URL Redirection when splitting one blog into two blogs?

Hi there,

I run WordPress 2.5.1.

Recently I’ve decided my blog needs to be split into a work blog & a personal blog. Unfortunately I’m not very technically savvy so I’ve decided I will take the following approach:

1. Export old database & import it into both new blogs
2. Delete the posts on each of the blogs if they should be appearing on the other
3. Use a url redirection plugin (https://www.google.co.nz/search?q=wordpress+url+redirection&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&client=firefox-a) to (hopefully) redirect the old URL’s to the new URL on one of my two new blogs.

I would appreciate any feedback on whether this is the best way to approach this? Any links to existing details of how to do this type of blog migration would be appreciated as I haven’t been able to find any.

Thanks in advance.
