From Blogger to WordPress and Ninety Nine Ways is Born

For those of you who have known me for a little while my intentions of migrating from Blogger to WordPress should come as no surprise to you. This was a move I first thought about making months if not years ago but I just didn’t get around to actually doing it.

As you can see I have finally moved Show Me The Money over to WordPress and with the move came about a change in what the blog was all about. If you are interested you can read a bit more about it here. Coming to grips with the basics of WordPress wasn’t too much of a hassle because earlier in the year I did a little experiment and set up a phpBay site which has been going well. Whilst working on my phpBay sites (which I will write about in future posts) I was impressed by what WordPress had to offer and I was pretty much sold on the idea of migrating. The only reason it took a while from then, was because I was waiting to see if I could win myself a WordPress blog through Rocky’s competition. That wasn’t to be but it wasn’t something that was going to stop me from moving and I got the ball rolling.

The move was something I decided to go ahead and do by myself but there are a number of people out there who provide services to do the move for you (most of them charge a service fee). There were a few people who helped a great deal and either directed me towards tutorials on migrating, provided a few useful tips and tricks and answered any questions I had to the best of their ability. That being said, I would like to thank Martin – Creating an Awesome Home Business and Clement – Clement Nyirenda’s blog world .

    I don’t have a comparison because I haven’t seen your blogger site but your site now here in wordpress is great and easy to navigate. I’d say good move.

      That is fair enough – you never did get to see my blogger site. Anyhow, I’m glad you like the way the site looks. I hope to see you around again sometime soon.

      Clement, you are right about that, better late than never. I must say that I am loving WP and no worries about the link love. See you around my friend.
