I did the prot aoe build until I got to outland... and it's just not what it was in Azeroth. Unfortunately, I did the 65-70 grind with ret.
I modified the build you linked to what I would use (but it's meant for grinding/solo)

Just a few notes. The vindication talent doesn't do anything pve, that's a pvp talent. Mobs don't have Attributes like characters do. So I removed it.
Spiritual Focus isn't totally needed. You shouldn't be healing through damage, or if you do need to, Bubble + Bandage. Crusade + Improved Sanctity Aura = 5% more total damage, and the Sanctified Judgment gives you mana back on your judgments (negating the need for Divine Intellect... which isn't great for you since Ret Pallys tend to not gear for INT)
I deliberately left 3 points unspent. I wouldn't put them anywhere in the Ret tree unless you pvp. PvE spellcasters can't crit, so no Eye for an Eye, and again the vindication thing.
I would personally start climbing prot to get Precision and Guardian's Favor.

Move the 3 points from vindication into Crusade.
Divine Intellect doesn't do much for a properly geared ret paladin; you won't have much intel, so there won't be much benefit from the 5 points you put in. Likewise with the points in spiritual focus.
5/11/45 or 5/8/48 are suited for grouping/raiding, while 0/18/43 is better for PvP.

Just a note: although this may not necessarily be a reason to get Vindication back over the other builds that have been suggested, GenXCub is wrong (as of a recent patch, so he/she may not be at fault for this).

It now lowers all attributes, and is viable for soloing.
I got the information from
retlol
, the ret pally website, which states:
All NPCs are immune to the effects of this, even if they get the debuff. It does however proc Judgement of Wisdom.
Back at the OP, I do my Queldanas dailies as holy (just because I don't want to respec every day, not because it's better), and I do decently with grabbing 3 mobs and Consecrate + Judgment of Wisdom, healing through damage. Yeah, ret does it better, but it's faster than prot.

Feh, the SSO dailies are easy as prot.
