Blogging Addiction

It has been long overdue, to really utilize this blog and make it look, well, professional. It took me about an hour to set up the hosting and move from a blogger hosted domain to a Wordpress account.

Previously this blog was a small project, after realizing it’s potential with it’s own domain I moved forward. Since the PR slap I’ve decided to remove all of the sponsored posts and try to comply with google.

To start, I removed this domain as being hosted by Blogger, and set up it’s own hosting with Hostmonster. I had to relocate the name servers of the domain to point to hostmonster.

Then came the fun part. Installing Wordpress and moving all of the content from the blogger.

To do this you go to manage, select “import” then move from blogger. I was surprised really at how easy this was. It took only a minute to import all of the posts as well as comments from the blogger hosted content.

Next was installing the theme. For this blog I chose the Structure Theme from Jason Tadlock. The structure theme is definitely my favorite theme I’ve worked with. It is a little more complicated than others, but each theme takes some time to get used to.

Here is the before and the after:
