I'm delighted to learn you're doing so well.

Yes, but look at how much you're risking - using a system that has repeatedly shown that it can suddenly delete all someone's blogs. Looks risky to me.

I hope you're going to diversify soon.

I have to agree with Allan. If you are using a free service you are playing with fire. Blogger recently deleted all my blogs without notice or reason (they suck!).

Go with wordpress!

Why not just get some web space, a few domain names, and ftp your blogger blogs into your own space, where they are safe from being deleted?

Maybe the answer is no for this if you have a lot of links into blog posts. In that case leave the old blog at bogspot and do all new posts into a new blog that you ftp to a web host.

For newbies, Blogger is dead flat simple to use.

You can also import Blogger blogs into Wordpress. I've seen a few but not done it myself. One problem I saw was internal links being broken in the WP import of the blogger blog. Sure there are a few other problems with this.

Anyone done it?
