Export Import in Blogger Blogspot

Update February 21, 2009: All export/import and embedded below-post-comment are now out of beta. So, you can directly login to blogger.com, instead of draft.blogger.com, and do export /import or setting below-post comment. ***

Google’s Blogger / blogspot doesn’t want to be lagged far behind its competitor. It seems willing and trying hard to improve its performance as per the end-users feedback. The embedded-below-post comment inbox is now on the trial–not officially released yet, though you’re encouraged to try it.

Another project in the pipeline is export import facility. For now you can export files from blogger/blogspot blog and import them to another blogger / blogspot. Well, it cannot be imported to another blogging platform such as wordpress yet. But it’s a big step nevertheless.

How to Do it

1. Login to your blogger.com admin through http://draft.blogger.com
2. Click Setting
3. Click Export -> export blog to your computer.

Once it’s done the file is ready to be imported. You just need to repeat the same process:
1. Click Setting
2. Click Import
3. Click Browse to exported file in your computer
4. Click Import Blog (don’t forget to check the “Publish all entries automatically)
5. Done.
