I’m thinking about switching too. Mine will be a lot easier since there are only two months worth of posts but still.

I did read a post at mom on the run and she offered to help make the switch for a small fee

I’m hosting with Total Choice Hosting along with Miranda. After you get your host setup and all it can be really easy to do all the rest.

I moved mine over to wordpress over a year ago and love it! Feedburner will keep all of your subscribers – and there’s a wordpress plug-in that makes sure they all stay together for you (Feedburner Feedsmith plug-in). I’m hosted through my hubby’s company, so no help there – but good luck!

And I’ll see you at BlogHer…

hmmm why doesn’t blogger have an upgrade option -they are missing out!
I just started momactive.com on wordpress and I’m thinking it is pretty cool – but the amount of work already invested in my personal site … it would kill me if I had to start over! lol

I transferred my blog & my daughters from Blogger to WordPress. It's super easy, but it's also fully explained in the Dummies book on WordPress.

The only problems that I experienced with the transfer had to do with photos, but I resolved or ignored those issues.

WordPress has a list of recommended hosts, see http://wordpress.org/hosting/

I'm using DreamHost and my daughter is using BlueHost. They're both excellent, but I prefer DreamHost as it seems easier to use it for FT uploads. Both provide one step installations, and support to guide you on your way.

I found the name of the host I’m using. It’s Total Choice Hosting. It’s only $4 a month.

I have no words of encouragement really, but I often think of switching myself. It’s a big decision, and I too am scared to actually do it!

I hope someone has something more insightful to say for you!
