How do I ease my blog off Blogger?

Andrew, I've been following the thread and bleary eyed from reading all the posts and here's my problem - I've had my Blogger blog a bit over a year and did not attempt to make money off it. Somewhere I had read about getting the subscribers first, then go for the money - which is what I did.

Now I have over 400 subscribers to the feed but I want to get away from Blogger. I attempted, once to move from Blogger to WP.com and that didn't go too well.

What's the best way to do it? I can pay for hosting and junk, the problem is all my archived posts (which I have saved on my HD I hope they are all there) and I never upgraded this blog to the new Blogger.

Thought I'd ask the experts. :bowdown:
 
Hi,
I'd not move from blogger to wp.com, but instead hosted wordpress on your own webhosting account.

[You can do a single click WP install with fantastico]

WP has a feature to import blogger posts to your WP install.

I started out playing with a blogger blog and pull the posts over.

Once I was on WP, my traffic started flying, cos of the enhanced plugins and features I could do with WP.

Chicarica trial by fire,

Her first post and 3 minutes later someone hits on her... Welcome to WF!

Just imagine if some of the 3 gurllzz here actually did post boobies, umm well their own.

But welcome, sometimes it is like a sausage factory in here.
 
Hi,
I don't use PPP cos they work with US-based bloggers only.

I have done a paid review for ReviewMe though and got paid on time.

It was a pretty good assignment too because I was reviewing the Wordze keyword tool for l3vi from boogybonbon.

The money is pretty low, but if you take it as an opportunity to network, it could result in a joint collaboration with an interesting partner.

-
Most of these monetization streams like TLA, PPP, ReviewMe will certainly not bring you big bucks, but they might help offset your hosting/keyword/squirt tool costs.

If you want to make serious dough, you need to be aggressive in CPA or affiliate offers, or better yet, work direct with a merchant or promote your own products.

I wanna know about Payperpost. Do they actually pay ? Has anyone had good success with them so far ?
 
duplicate content?

Andrew, you said that you also have blogs that you haven't touched for 8 months that are autoposting with the feedwordpress plugin. Do you use something to rewrite the rss feeds first before they post to your blog?
 
if you're using the poor man's RSS2Blog, like feedwordpress, it posts RSS feeds as is, unless you hack the plugin to modify the text.

I'd use RSS2Blog if you could get ahold of it.

Else if you pick something where there's a lot of traffic like iphones or harry potter, you'd get some traffic even if you'd some duplicate content.
 
My blogs

I have just started out with blogs as well. I started 3 and now i am focusing on the one and once i have that template going the way i want I will easily deploy it to the other blogs.

But i wanted to post so I could subscribe to this thread cause i will be very interested in what I can learn. I will throw my 2 cents in hear and there but it will be more of what I learned not to do.
