How to Make Your WordPress or Blogger Blog DoFollow

What does becoming DoFollow mean? It simply means that you are allowing each commenter’s links in your comments section to be nofollow free. It is like a reward to the people who take the time to leave a comment on your website, allowing their links to be fully useful when search engines crawl your post.

So how do you make your blog DoFollow?

Self-Hosted WordPress Blogs

For self-hosted WordPress users, it is pretty easy. Simply go to your Dashboard > Plugins > Add New and search for DoFollow. You should receive a list of current DoFollow plugins that you can simply install and activate. Once activated, these plugins automatically make all of the commenters’ links (past and future) DoFollow.

Why You Should Not Migrate From Blogger To WordPress ?

WTF! read the title again.

Doesn’t it sound unique, the heading is just opposite to the ones you might have read on other blogs. In this article we are going to discuss the benefits of  Blogspot platform. We will go through the points in which blogspot is better than WordPress.

Ask a professional blogger, which platform should I choose?

Most of them will suggest you to choose self hosted WordPress. I don’t want to say they are wrong but with all due respect they are not totally right.

If you blog for fun or you are just a beginner then choose blogger but if you want to go professional then choose WordPress. We have already got the reasons covered and if you missed it, here are few articles to help you:

Why WordPress is better than BlogSpot platform

Why WordPress is best Blogging platform at this moment

Most bloggers live with the above thought. WordPress is an open source CMS (content management system) for blogging which is used by millions of bloggers and it’s everyone’s first choice but BlogSpot platform has its own benefits. Before going through my favorite features let us see a few facts about Blogger.

Number of blogs = 100 blogs per account.

Number of labels = 2,000 unique labels per blog, 20 unique labels per post

Number of pictures = Up to 1 GB storage and all the images are stored in Picasa

Number of posts = Unlimited.

Static Pages = 20 stand-alone pages.

Authors = 100 per blog.

Size of pages = Individual pages (the main page of a blog or archive pages) are limited to 1 MB

Size of pictures = Pictures are scaled to 1600px

Migrating from Blogger to WordPress

Hey everyone! 

This all feels so strange. After 4 years of dedication to Blogger, I have decided to make the leap (..slow, tedious dragging of my feet) to WordPress. It was extremely agonizing at first – mostly because I was so terrified of losing content but also because I didn’t want to lose any my followers or my SEO rankings.

But I put my big girl pants on and here we are! Starlit Corner* on WordPress. HOORAY! 

First things first.

Content transfer is pretty easy because both Blogger and WordPress allow for easy export/import. So if you’re thinking about migrating like me, don’t worry too much about that. When it comes to picking a theme, remember that you can’t customize the width of your columns in most themes so pick carefully! Especially if you’ve uploaded photos – I found that some themes would cut off my photos or change the image size and distort the picture.

Step by step.

1. Open a WordPress account and set up your profile and domain.

2. In your dashboard, navigate to ‘Tools’ and select ‘Import’.

3. Select the ‘Blogger’ option and authorize permission for WordPress to collect and copy your files.

4. A list of your Blogger blogs should appear and you select which you would like to import.

Now the difficult part. Obviously when you transfer your blog, your links change and you lose your stats and Google rankings.

I have found a couple websites showing me how to redirect traffic from my Blogger page to here but I want to be sure about it before I start fiddling with the HTML template. So if anyone knows of a reliable site to direct me, I would reeeeally appreciate it.

Which Do You Prefer: Blogger Or WordPress?

I have friends on WordPress   who also have blogs on Blogger. I would like to know, which one do they prefer?

I will admit that when I was over on Blogger, it was very easy to navigate around the features. I didn’t need to know much about programming and it was very easy for me to launch my posts into the worldwide web.

I will also admit that Blogger  would be rather easy for those who are first time bloggers, because the account is easy to set up and it can be up and running in less than five minutes’ time.

In regards to WordPress, it would take the newcomer a little while before they can manoeuvre themselves around WordPress’  settings. I must add that it took me awhile before it all sank in.

The truth is: I never regretted making the transition from Blogger   to WordPress; the migration was worth it; Renard Moreau Presents   said, “Goodbye,” to Blogger   and said, “Hello,” to WordPress.

I am also curious to know if it is a regular occurrence for people on WordPress   to bring their blogs over from Blogger  via importation. I doubt that I am the only one who removed their blog from Blogger  and planted it firmly in WordPress.

I know for a fact that many of you on WordPress  who once held blogs on Blogger  deleted them or simply ignored them and started new blogs from scratch.

I had no intentions of throwing Renard Moreau Presents   in the figurative trash-can; it would have been crazy of me if I made a move like that. After all, it was filled with great articles — articles that I wrote and started compiling in the year 2009.

I must say that the themes on WordPress  are professional-looking.

The themes on Blogger   are nice too, but I prefer the look of WordPress’   themes.

How to Create A Blog with Blogger.Com

If you don't have a person gmail account (must not be your education gmail, such as University of Minnesota gmail account), go ahead and create new gmail account now. It's important that you don't use your official education account as it doesn't have all the features that personal gmail accounts do.

IMPORTANT: When you use your personal gmail account and your personal blog, you should use a different browser than the one that you use for your official education/university gmail, otherwise this causes problems. e.g. I use Firefox for my University of MN gmail, and Chrome for my personal gmail and personal blog.

Once you have created a personal gmail account, link to the https://blogger.com/start website

Click on the orange arrow that says "create your blog now."

On the "Create a Google Account" screen enter in the information required, namely:

Enter your personal gmail email address, which should be the one that you want to use to be paired with your blog that you are going to create [must not be your official education one. You'll have to retype your email address in the second box.
