Blogger to WordPress Migrations
A lot of bloggers have been making the jump from Blogger (Blogspot) or WordPress.com to self-hosted WordPress. With Blogger giving only limited control to blog owners most serious bloggers outgrow the limitations of Blogger and soon find themselves wanting to move to self-hosted WordPress.
We receive a large number of enquiries each week about migration with most bloggers not knowing where to start or more importantly what is required to move properly. It is a common misconception that pretty much anyone can do a migration and what is actually involved so it is vital that you use someone who has experience with migrations and has an understanding of MYSQL. Sadly all too often we have had to fix and “rescue” migrations where images are not imported, often resulting in missing images on the new blog and readers being re-directed to blogger when clicking on an image.
Please when considering a migration service ask the migrator if they have the knowledge and expertise to move all of your images onto your hosts server. If this does not happen you run the risk of your images being irrevocably deleted forever by Blogger leaving broken links and images on your new site. If images are not moved and left directing to blogger then those clicking your images will be taken off your site.
