Convert Blogger XML to WordPress

Moving a Blogger blog to WordPress starts with your Blogger XML backup.

This converter reads the content in your Blogger export and creates a WordPress eXtended RSS (WXR) file that you can import with WordPress Importer. It handles the XML conversion step — your WordPress theme, plugins, navigation and redirects are set up separately, after the content import.

How to convert Blogger XML to WordPress

1

Export your Blogger backup

From Blogger, go to Settings → Manage blog → Back up content, and download the XML file — or sign in with Google and pick a blog directly.

2

Upload and review

Upload the XML file here. We scan every post, page, label and comment so you can choose exactly what to bring over.

3

Download your WordPress WXR file

When the conversion is ready, download the generated WXR file — this is the file you take to your WordPress dashboard.

4

Import into WordPress

In WordPress, go to Tools → Import, install WordPress Importer if needed, then upload the WXR file and follow the importer instructions.

What can be converted from Blogger

The exact content available depends on your Blogger XML backup and the options you choose.

  • Posts — supported Blogger posts, ready to review before import.
  • Pages — included as WordPress pages.
  • Labels — can be mapped to WordPress categories.
  • Comments — included when present in your export.
  • Drafts — handled according to the export options you select.
  • Images — kept at their existing URLs or rewritten for WordPress media, depending on the option you choose.

What this tool does not migrate

Converting an XML backup is not the same as rebuilding your entire Blogger site.

  • Blogger theme design and widgets
  • WordPress theme, plugins and their settings
  • Navigation menus you build in WordPress
  • Third-party services and integrations
  • Redirect rules for your old Blogger URLs

These are configured separately after the content import — the full migration guide walks through each one. Read the complete Blogger XML to WordPress migration guide →

Before you start

Have these ready before you upload your Blogger backup.

  • Your latest Blogger XML backup
  • Access to the WordPress site you are importing into
  • A current backup of that WordPress site
  • WordPress Importer installed
  • A plan for images and any old Blogger URLs you want to redirect

Why use this converter

Free, no account required

Convert a Blogger XML backup into a WordPress-compatible WXR file without creating an account. Sign in with Google only if you want to pick a blog automatically.

Labels, images and comments, handled carefully

Blogger labels can be mapped to WordPress categories, images can be kept at their existing URLs or rewritten for your media library, and comments included in your export can be brought over — depending on the options you choose.

Standard WordPress WXR output

The generated file follows the WordPress eXtended RSS (WXR) format, so it imports the same way as a native WordPress export.

Files deleted automatically

Uploaded backups and generated files are removed after 72 hours. You can also delete your data at any time.

What to check after importing

Before calling the migration done, check the essentials.

  • Posts, pages and publication dates look correct
  • Categories and comments imported as expected
  • Images load correctly
  • Internal links work
  • Old Blogger URLs have a redirect plan
  • Your WordPress site is indexable, with a sitemap submitted to Search Console

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert a Blogger XML file to WordPress?

Export your Blogger content as an XML backup, upload the file here, review the available content and conversion options, download the generated WXR file, then import it through WordPress Tools → Import.

Is this Blogger to WordPress converter free?

The basic XML conversion workflow is free and does not require an account for direct XML upload. Signing in with Google is optional and only needed to select a Blogger blog directly.

Will my Blogger labels become WordPress categories?

Labels can be mapped to WordPress categories according to the conversion options you select. Review the resulting category structure after import.

Will my images and comments be migrated?

Image handling depends on the option you choose — you can keep existing image URLs or use an image-rewriting workflow. Comments included in your source export can be included as well, when supported by the selected options.

What is a WXR file?

WXR stands for WordPress eXtended RSS. It is the XML format WordPress uses to export and import content such as posts, pages and comments, and it is the file this converter generates for you.

Does this migrate my entire Blogger website?

No. It converts the content represented in your Blogger XML backup. Theme design, widgets, WordPress configuration, plugins, integrations and redirect rules need to be handled separately.
