ACK! Blog transfer and DC penalty

    I just transferred one of my blogs to one of my servers (not on blogspot.com), but the original content at blogspot remains. I don't want to be penalized for duplicate content...

    Anyone know if I can delete the files at blogspot without affecting those on my server? Blogger only recognizes one group of files in the CP, even when accessed from both sites...

    Personally, I would delete the content and on each page, place a link to where the new site can be found...

    Not a lot else you can do other that placing meta's on every page...

    im not sure what to do, but DC will be minimal because i transferred early on.

    I guess I'm stuck with my decision. Kinda stupid tho. Maybe I'll e-mail G about it and see if they can remove it manually or give me instructions to do so.

    You'll just have to delete it I think...

    Speak to TwisterMC... He made the move recently... He'll know what to do...
