How to transfer your Blog from blogspot to wordpress

Discussion in 'WordPress' started by NeoGen, Jan 11, 2006.

    Hello,

    I have a blog at blogspot.com

    I have decided to move that blog to wordpress.

    Is there any way I can easily transfer all my blogspot posts/comments to my new wordpress hosting.

    Thanks

    With the new wordpress version 2.0 there's a import function (tab) where you can import from blogger to the new wordpress.

    Yeah, it is money. It was easy to do pre-2.0, but now it is a joke it is so easy.

    Thanks a lot for directing me in right direction.

    I updated the wordpress installation from 1.5 to 2.0. Rest was really a cake walk.

    Few issues with 2.0 are that couple of plugins and themes are not working.

    Damn! I just did it last month using my old friends Mr. Cut and Ms. Paste!

    How did your upgrade process itself go, Webhost

    It was like charm.. enter your blogspot userid/password, select the blog you want to transfer and relax. It was very very easy.

    Number of factors, more professional, flexibility, ease of customization, can use different plugins, your own domain, can choose my own customized skin and especially things are in your control. I just found a thread on this forum:

    It is very easy to migrate from Blogger to wordpress. You can use the option of retrieving posts from blogger with tools that are available in Wordpress. Before that make sure your permalinks are set correctly and all tags are converted to categories

    using word press is so easy now a days .... just import blogger posts/comments to the word press and you have done.

    Hello!
    You may try wordpress plugin, however it not always works and this method requires some tech knowledge. However, there is one more way, you may try this video tutorial to move your content. This tool requires you to install the wordpress site and then it moves blog entities to WordPress. Also, you have install the theme and plugins for further management.
    It works pretty plain and fast. And you may try free demo migration to see the tool in progress.

    Wish you luck!

    Why are you transferring your blog from blogger to word press? Blogger is easy to use and also it is much essential in its features.
