I currently use Blogger, but I've decided I prefer WordPress. Is there a way to transfer my Blogger account to WordPress, without just re-entering the blogs?

Thanks. :)

Yes, you can set up a Wordpress blog hosted by you, or at Wordpress.com and there's an option in the settings panel to import posts from Blogger. I'll post a screenshot in a sec.

Users of WordPress 2.2 and above can import from Blogger. Earlier versions cannot import from Blogger because "New Blogger" was released by Google, invalidating all the old importers. Only WordPress 2.2 and later has support for "New Blogger".

If you haven't already, you must be using New Blogger and a Google Account on Blogger. If you are still using Old Blogger, the importer will not work.

To start the importer, go to Manage → Import → Blogger and follow the directions.

Awesome, thanks guys!

I'll do this the minute I get home (I'm babysitting, it just seems like something too personal to do on someone else's computer. ).
