Many blogger friends want to transfer their blogger site to WordPress. And to migrate the Blogger site to WordPress, the Blogger XML file needs to be uploaded or imported to WordPress in the right way.
Why Can’t Import Large Blogger Files to WordPress?
But users don’t know that WordPress site has a file upload limit. For that reason, no large Blogger XML files are uploaded to WordPress. So before transferring to Blogger the following two points must be kept in mind –
- What is the size of the Blogger site backup XML file?
- How many MB upload limitations are there on new WordPress sites?
If the backup file is smaller than WordPress’ upload limitations, that’s fine. But if it is the opposite then follow the below methods. You can easily upload your Blogger site backup file to WordPress, no matter how many GB.
