Decided to finally move my blog over from Blogger and so happy I did!

Wordpress just seems so much cleaner and easier!

Can take a look if you like, link is below.

Can I ask just how you transfer a blog from blogger to wordpress? Do you just copy your template and then paste it in?????
It does look neat and tidy (but i'm always playing around with pictures and stuff Rolling Eyes

)

It was really easy.

When you select your template, you can opt to import your posts from Blogger, which is what I did and so got all my old posts, without having to retype anything.

The templates are great to as you can change them and they don't lose anything. So much easier to use.

Would really recommend it!

Go to My Dashboard, and you should have headings like Dashboard, write, manage etc along the top

Click on Presentation, that then opens themes, where you can select your theme.

Go to the Manage section then Import to import your posts from blogger.

Hope that helps.

It took me about 2hrs to set up, but I keep tweaking it!
