    When you migrate a blog which is self hosted via ftp from blogger platform to wordpress self hosted platform, does the permalinks change or break? Does it effect the SEO, PR, traffic, backlinks etc.?

    Migrating a blog from blogger to wordpress will not effect your PR and backlinks if you keep your domain and permalink structure at no changes.

    As for SEO, hosting is one of the 200+ factors measure in SERP ranking. You might want to consider two points in hosting factors below:
    - Geo-location of hosting server
    - Up-time and reliability of the service

    Changing domain name or permalink structure needs 301 permanent redirection.
