Importing Content from Another Platform or WordPress Blog

We have made it easy for you to import your blog content from a variety of other blogging platforms. Simply log into your WordPress.com blog dashboard, then go to Tools -> Import, choose your previous platform and follow the instructions presented.

You can also easily import content here from another WordPress.com or WordPress.org blog or web site (choose the WordPress option).

If we do not have an importing tool for your particular platform, you will need to try and convert it into one of the accepted formats so that you can use the proper importer.

Importing Media

If you are importing content from another WordPress-powered blog, you can automatically download your attachments: just tick the Download and import file attachments check box in the 2nd step and the files will be downloaded from your old host and uploaded to WordPress.com.
