#1 Blogger to WordPress Redirection Plugin


This plugin can be used to migrate your blog from Blogger.com blog to WordPress blog with 1-to-1 redirection. It handles the most important aspect during any Blogger.com to WordPress migration that is redirecting everyone from Blogger.com post to same post on WordPress blog.

Features:

  • Generate JavaScript code for Blogger.com template.
  • Automatically handle redirection at WordPress end.
  • The mapping between Blogger.com and WordPress posts is done on 1-to-1 basis for both search engines as well as human-visitors.
  • Search engines redirection has been taken care of by using META Refresh tag and “rel=canonical” tags. Together these techniques should be able to compensate for 301-redirection, which is the best solution but not possible on Blogger.com server.
  • Human-visitors will be redirected using JavaScript codes, and if JavaScript is disabled using META Refresh tag.

This plugin has been developed by Rahul Bansal and Rakshit Thakker and tested by Nitun Lanjewar of the rtCamp team.
