But I think they want to use blogger -> WordPress.com/own domain. I wonder does blogger allow you to add in meta redirect to the html code.

i remember i did a redirect last time for my website to blogger in case people are still pointing to old url. maybe that will solve some of the people’s concern?

@Claudia: Yea, I think next time will not stress liao lol

@KC: Yeap, feel free to ping me. There is a blogger import from WordPress which allows you to import Blogger Post. It is hard not to lose traffic because you are changing to something different, perhaps you can have a post at your site saying that you are going to move to a new host.

@altantic: There will be chances =D

Hi there, nice share about WP. I had been thinking of changing to WP for a while but had to do a lot of googleling to figure out the difference between the two. Glad to now that’ a WP guru locally, now I know who to ping when I need help… The only sad thing is that there ain’t a easy way to transit from blogger to WP without losing traffic or cracking the links. But then again I don’t have a thousand over post just something like 60tish-70tish. Guess it just takes a little planning to do the migration.

Ciao,

it is surprising that wordpress is only a rising population here. there are people who have never use it before. there are so many questions but too little time. i think with ur knowledge, you can educate the public more…

hohoho~ you finally know how i feel as a host when i’m in serene’s wedding. and thanks for bringing me there. it’s quite a eye opener.
