But, I suggest that if you're making good hits, you make the switch ASAP. Otherwise, all your good content will continue to remain pointed at the WordPress.com blog.</p> <p>If you switch now, you can monetize your blog.</p> <p>Google indexes blogs rather properly, as far as I am aware </p> http://www.labnol.org/forums/topic/when-is-the-right-time-to-switch-from-worpress-hosted-blog-to-your-own-domain-bl#post-4639 Thu, 12 Feb 2009 11:46:29 +0000 Anonymous 4639@http://www.labnol.org/forums/ <p>I am running a blog at <a href="http://digitizor.wordpress.com" rel="nofollow">http://digitizor.wordpress.com</a>, and off late have been getting good hits. But the fear of losing hits on switching from custom domain is keeping me back. My queries are:</p> <p>1) once i switch to my own domain, will the google page indexing be as effective as it used to be while my blog was on wordpress?</p> <p>2) when should you ideally switch to the custom domain blog (running wordpress.org software). I wanted to know this in terms of hits</p> <p>thank you </p> http://www.labnol.org/forums/topic/feedburner-feed-redirection-from-blogspot-to-custom#post-2346 Wed, 25 Jun 2008 20:42:56 +0000 Anonymous 2346@http://www.labnol.org/forums/ <p>Hi Amit,</p> <p>Please delete/close this thread. I understood now, just got bit confused, that's why the mess above. </p> http://www.labnol.org/forums/topic/feedburner-feed-redirection-from-blogspot-to-custom#post-2341 Tue, 24 Jun 2008 18:49:24 +0000 Anonymous 2341@http://www.labnol.org/forums/ <p>HI Amit,</p> <p>I have finally moved from blogspot to custom blog (this one also hosted by blogger) as discussed in <a href="http://www.labnol.org/forums/topic/blogger-to-custom-domain" rel="nofollow">http://www.labnol.org/forums/topic/blogger-to-custom-domain</a>. </p> <p>I have some problems with RSS redirection though:</p> <p>1) I am using feedburner for both OLD_BLOG and NEW_BLOG. For my NEW_BLOG I went to "Edit Feed Details…" &gt; "original feed" and changed it to my OLD_FEED. Now here what is happening is that in my NEW_FEED I can see the old content which is published on OLD_BLOG but not the new content of NEW_BLOG. How can I resolve this?</p> <p>2) From now onwards I don't want the new content from my OLD_BLOG to show up in my NEW_FEED. By new content in OLD_BLOG I mean the excerpts and link to the content posted on NEW_BLOG. Well, I want it exactly the way you have done here [http://www.labnol.org/internet/blogging/moving-blog-from-blogger-to-wordpress-with-rss-feeds/1870/] in step 9. but what I see as of new is that NEW_FEED has the new content of OLD_BLOG also.</p> <p>Could you please tell where am I going wrong? </p> <p>By the way Amit, the way you have "shifted from blogger to wordpress" was an excellent one. I am also trying to follow similar steps only diff being I am not moving from blogspot to wordpress but from blogspot to custom domain(hosted with blogger only). </p>
