I do blogging regularly and even google recognized it by placing the posts in top SERPs. But after posting a good number of articles (>60) in it, I did changed the url format of wordpress blog from the default to a new format .../?p=k to ..../%category%/%postname%/

This was done to gain SEO benefit, but infact, after that my blog posts are not even getting indexed. This is happening only with Google. Both MSN and Yahoo has recognized the changes, but still google is not recognizing it.

Daily I'm submitting the sitemap to Google using the wordpress plugin, even then it does not index it.

Could anybody help me in this regard.

But have you done a 301 redirect between the old URL format to the new URL format?

I'm happy that Google has recognized the new url format. It is indexing now.
