How To Transfer Your Blogger Blog From One Account To The Other

Let me start my today post with a nice story, shall we!. Sometime back somebody approached and asked me, if I would love to sell one of my blogs. The offer he gave was mouth watering that it was impossible to say NO, but there was a problem. Would you like to know the problem? The blog he wanted to buy from me, was hosted on a blogger platform and the email id i am using with my blogger blog, is my personal Gmail account 🙂 . It was also difficult to sell the site because I have 3 other websites hosted on that same blogger dashboard. If it were you, what would you do?

After much argument, he convinced me that he can manage that particular blog without having access to my main blogger dashboard. How can that be possible? All I have to do is make him an admin and remove myself as an admin to that particular site, by doing that, it will give him the right to own that particular blog :). I did what he says and I successfully sold the site to him.

  1. Hi Babanature,

    This is indeed interesting 🙂

    Or perhaps I had no idea about it because all I know is that when I tried migrating my blog from Blogger to WordPress, I surely lost a lot of comments, and some of my social sharing counts also vanished. I thought I was doing the right thing and following the suggestions as told, but that’s exactly what happened with me.

    This tutorial will surely help those who want to transfer their blog from one account to another, though within the Blogger platform itself. Needs to be shared 🙂

    Thanks for sharing. Have a nice week ahead 🙂

      You know! when migrating your blog from blogger to WordPress (vice versa), some things like some few comments might get deleted if not done that properly, ya know. But thank God its the thing of the past for you 🙂 .

      It would truly help many bloggers especially those who are looking to get their adsense approved and don’t have the proper blog to. And those who find a like to your blogger blog.

  8. Interesting post Baba,
    These days, it seems everything is just possible with proper research and attention. As you know, I’m not that good with blogger platform but, i must tell you that this post is really amazing because, I’m sure most blogger users don’t know that this is possible as you did when the buyer of your blog approached you.

    I’m also happy to hear that you sold one of your blogs man and, I’m waiting for my own share of the $$$$$ too:).

    Some days ago, someone also sent me a mail that he is interested on my blog…Top Blogging Coach but, i didn’t respond to the email because, I’m not ready to flip that site :).

    Thanks for sharing man and, have a great week.

    1. Thank you Theodore,
      You know, the reason i sold the blog was because the blog was just a case study and moreover, it is hosting on a free platform 🙂 . Ahhh… I have also been approached to sell this my blog, but i did decline the offer because i do believe that this particular blog will be my true purpose online 🙂
      lol… Amma sure share it with your bro if you help sell the next one 🙂

      Do have a good week ahead bro…

  16. Hi Babanature,

    Thank you very much for this awesome information… It is totally a new concept for me… 🙂

    Really appreciate it.. 🙂

    Want your suggestion regarding installing CommentLUV… I have a confusion in choosing “Multiple” or “Unlimited” option…

    Can you please enlighten me, what is the difference between them???..

    1. Hello Karmakar,
      Glad you find the post awesome enough to comment 🙂
      The only difference i can see between them is; the “unlimited” option has way more features compare to the “multiple” option. But aside the feature differences, you can use both on as many sites as possible.

  17. I had absolutely no idea that you could transfer a blogger blog to another account.

    This would have come in handy when I had my blog and I wanted to move it. I have heard of transferring WordPress sites but never a blogger blog. Thanks for the info. I am quite sure that a lot of people will benefit from this information.
