Need help transferring blog

[Rishi87]

I run a Blogger blog, which i am planning to transfer to an external host and use Wordpress instead? How can i route my visitors to a new blog if they are visiting my Blogger blog? Need i do something to my Blogger blog?

Also, what measures do i have to take for transfer?

I can help you with the Transfer thing. First of all take a good paid webhost. Check list here of some wonderful webhosts here: http://mrintech.com/a-guide-for-sele...sting-services

Now install Wordpress there.

After this Go to Manage Tab and then Import. There is an easy import option for Blogger post.

Now with redirection problem, i don't know much about redirection, so other Digitians will help you

Oh no, do i have to go through such scary looking things? Anyway, is there any script available online?

No you will loose nothing. First of all go for a paid host and import all your posts via wordpress. Before taking paid host ask them how to redirect your old blogger posts to new domain posts

cheers!!

@Rishi87, here's your script -

<script type=text/javascript>
window.location='http://yourblogaddress.com'
</script>

This will redirect any visitors of your blogger blog to yourblogaddress.com

Post based redirection requires more coding and also URL compatibility on the Wordpress site i.e. a specific type of pattern which is easy to implement.
