My Migration Has Ended

The American author Thomas Wolfe said

You can’t go home again

Well, you can't go back to Old Template 2006 Blogger, either.

Move your account to use the new Blogger

Not a lot of choice there. OK, I'm going.

The last time I'll see this.

Several tense moments later, the email popped up on my screen.

Welcome to the new Blogger.

The last time I'll see this.

But how to log back in? Not from the old shortcut, I see.

The last time I'll see this.

DOHH. Just load the blog, now, and use the link on the Navbar.

Add A Custom Redirect, If You Change A Post URL

When you rename a blog, the most that you can do, to keep the old URL useful, is to setup a stub post , with a clickable link to the new URL. Yo! The blog is now at xxxxxxx.blogspot.com!! Blogger forbids gateway blogs, and similar blog to blog redirections . When you rename a post, you can setup a custom redirect - and automatically redirect your readers to the post, under its new URL. You should take advantage of this option, if you change a post URL.

Recently, we've seen a few blog owners who are curious about odd trends in their Stats displays. My numbers seem to go up steadily for a while, then drop. Then, they go up again, for a while, then drop again. Rises and falls in traffic are normal. You'll never have the same number of people, viewing your blog, constantly. During some days and some hours, our readers are going to be elsewhere, and not viewing our blogs.
