Preparatory Tips Before Moving Blogger to Wordpress

(2 posts)
  1. If you plan to move over from Blogger to wordpress hosted on your own server in next few months, there here are 2 quick things you should do now.

    1. Buy a domain name now.
    It helps to increase the domain age and old domains look better in eyes of search engine algorithms and better for SEO. Its costs under $10 and might get some pagerank before you actually move, which will be good for your traffic dip.

    2. Get a feedburner feed.
    Make feedburner your default feed. When you move, simply change the source feed to the feedburner feed from the blogger to wordpress feed and subscribers will not need to subscribe again. Avoid losing readers easily. Its difficult to get people to resubscribe.

    What preparatory tips do you advise?

    Gradually start building good content on the new site. Start linking to the new site in your sidebar heavily. Wait till the new domain name gets a similar pagerank and then move.
