How To Import Your Blogspot Blogger Into A WordPress Blog

Nov 30

Guerilleros, you’re looking at a WordPress blog. A darn good one on my opinion.

But there are some guerilleros that still use blogspot Blogger blogs to carry their battles.

I honestly recommend anybody that is serious about their guerilla to switch to WordPress – it’s just the most intelligent weapon on your online arsenal.

So today I’m going to show you how to import your Blogger posts and pages into a new wordpress blog.

1. Log in to your WP Dashboard

Like this – yourblogname.com/wp-admin

Under Tools, click on Import

2. Under Import, click on Blogger

Import Blogger content to WordPress

3. Authorize WordPress to pull your info from Blogger

Authorize wordpress to access your blogger content

4. Grant access to your Google Account

Click on Grant Access to let WordPress pull your blogspot info

5. Click on IMPORT

Final stage: click on import

And that’s it!

WordPress, the awesome tool, converts your entire Blogger content into posts on their platform. So your brand new domain is not so brand new anymore – you’ve got everything back.

Now, if all you want is to have your blogger hosted on your own domain , read this other quick tutorial.

And, if you need a cheap and reliable wordpress hosting, check this out. I’ve got a special PENNY coupon for you.

The Synnd software is growing HUGE – Get in now while you can!

Nov 20

The Synnd software is reaching well over 600 members on the community

Guerilleros, I will make this quick and painless…

1. Sorry about the lack of content lately.

I’ve been swamped and having a hard time to sit down, look at data and write cool posts like the one about social media silos or social community building.

But I am working on it. That’s why I’ve been posting about Jeff Johnson’s free stuff – I figured I’d at least point you in the direction of a high-quality content provider.

2. My favorite social media marketing software is growing!

The Synnd software has now well over 600 members, which is huge for our syndication campaigns.

Think about: 600 people that get 20 credits a day free = 12000 credits going out daily (each credit means one bookmark, digg or Retweet). It’s a tremendous force to be reckoned with, specially when it can reach the first page of Digg for pretty much any category.

Yes – with 20 votes within 24 hours, your content can easily be featured on Digg or Reddit’s upcoming page – TONS of people hang out there. It’s huge traffic, free, coming straight to your site and taking action on your content!

I tould I’d make this quick, so here it goes:

Sign up for Synnd now, enjoy the free trial, and I will help you with anything during your setup. Personally!

Warning! Jeff Johnson’s WordPress SEO Plugin Needs A Quick Fix!

Nov 16

Quick fix for Jeff Johnson's Plugin will improve its results

A couple of days ago I publicly revealed my secret weapon for social media guerilla when it comes to wordpress plugins – jeff johnson’s free traffic-getting plugin. This cool plugin for wordpress combines major plugins in one package that is easy to install (less than 10 minutes) and can REALLY boost your SEO.

But of course, amongst the 100+ core changes that the plugin makes within WordPress, I dont agree with one – a big one.

I’ve explained before the optimal permalink structure for wordpress – Jeff Johnson’s plugin goes straight to that permalink structure, but changes one major thing.

This is how the plugin structures your permalinks:

/%post_id%/%postname%/

The problem here is in the first part of the structure, which will use your post ID as part of the URL – post IDS carry very little – if any – relevancy to your post. It’s a random number that wordpress assigns each plugin, no matter what your topic is.

So why would you have unnecessary, irrelevant items on your url?

EXACTLY!

Guerilleros, here’s the one thing you should change after installing Jeff Johnson’s SEO plugin:

/%category%/%postname%/

This simple change will add you post’s category into each permalink url – which will now carry a major addition that can heavily influence your rankings. This is what your posts will look like:

Much better than:

Integrating Social Media – Blog RSS to Facebook to Twitter Automatically

Yeah, I though so.

But dont let this quick little fix stop you from getting all the other benefits of Jeff’s plugin:

Jeff Johnson’s Cool (and free) Traffic-Getting SEO Plugin For WordPress

Nov 08

Jeff Johnson's Traffic-Getting SEO Plugin

It’s pretty hard to talk about any kind of social media marketing without going through a good list of WordPress plugins. Every blogger has their preferred set, but nobody really talks about them.

Advanced users may even step into the programming side and make their own tweaks to plugins such as TweetMeMe or the XML-sitemap generator. But it takes time – too much precious time!

But what if you could install ONE single plugin that would install all of the others by itself? And configure them to bring the most traffic?

Jeff Johnson decided to take up on the idea and turned his list of SEO plugins into a fully automated traffic-getting collection. And he’s giving it away for free!

Jeff’s FREE plugin performs 36 core optimizations (like using a better permalink structure) within your wordpress interface to increase on-page and off-page SEO. And it comes with a list of the 6 MUST-HAVE plugins ready to install at the click of a button.

The list includes classics such as the ALL-IN-ONE SEO and the Sociable Plugin, but also includes sneaky ones like the PING OPTIMIZER.

Overall, it’s a basic list – but one that every blog must have.

I use it on niche blogs that I really dont want to spend too much time on – just set it and forget it. The thing works wonders!

Of course, I’m going to give you my affiliate link so you can go and get your free seo plugin. But the whole thing is REALLY free – there’s no catch. And it works, so I feel comfortable recommending it. Go and get it!

here’s the link to the plugin

Does Your Business Suffer From Social Media Anxiety?

Nov 04

Social Media Anxiety affects MANY businesses... Kill It Now!

You’ve received an internationally famed professional into your company, he presented super cool new techniques, and you’re very excited about it…. Who do you tell?

You’ve just won an award of excellence that was voted on by your own community …. Who’s going to know about it?

Guerilleros, the situations above may seem impossible for us, but they are REALITY for way-too-many business owners. Trust me – I’ve had clients that won a State Tournaments in a major category and they told me about it two months later.

Sometimes, they will even surprise me and run a freaking TV ad bragging about their award…

But most of the time, they simply do nothing. I’ve written about social media silos before, but this is way worse.

In your daily Guerilla, I’m sure you run into people that still see blogs and social networks as a useless teenage passtime, like MTV. But have you ever asked these people how much they spend on Press Releases? Impressive enough, if they even have a PR budget, they will eventually drive themselves into this conclusion:

“I’m smart enough to pay this super famous magician to come entertain the drunks at my bar – I may be even smart enough to change the message on the Marquee – But where else can I post such a major announcement? Huhh… Maybe, if I had a platform I could update as I see fit, that my current drunks and potential drunks from the area would check, maybe leave a comment, or even see their own pictures?”

So lose the darn Social Media Anxiety – everything is BLOGsworthy

Receptionist had a baby? Post about it.
Have a crazy customer? Post about it (but omit the names)
Just closed a major deal? Post about it.
PR people wants to charge you $400/release? Laugh about it and post about it.

And to make sure you post gets seen (also, to reduce the traffic anxiety issues) be sure to start using SYNND.
