# How to Import Your Blogspot Content to WordPress

In this tutorial, we’ll walk you through how to move your blog from Blogger to WordPress, step by step.


|| NOTE: This tutorial assume you already have WordPress installed in your hosting account. We shall skip the WordPress installation steps.

1.  The first step is to export your Blogger blog. To export your blog from Blogger, log into your Blogger.com profile and navigate to **Settings » Other**. In the Import & back up section, click the **Back up content** button.

2. This will trigger a modal popup in which you’ll be asked to make a backup of your blog. Click the **Save to your computer** button.

3. Now import the downloaded file into your WordPress. To do this, go to your **WordPress Dashboard > Tools > Import**. Just below the Blogger option, click **Install Now**. Then, click **Run Importer**.

5.  After importing the files, you’ll be asked whether you need to create new users on your site or assign the posts to your existing users.
