So, finally I made the shift from a Blogspot-hosted blogger blog to a self-hosted Wordpress one. I have waited a long time to make this shift. The main reason preventing me was that I didn’t want to spend money on hosting.
But things have changed. I got a Dreamhost account which gave me one-click install feature. Amit Sharma’s description of shifting from Blogger to Wordpress helped.
Looking forward to good blogging on Wordpress.
