I'm going through this right now - all my old content is on blogspot.com, and I want to move to my current blog at mydomain.com/blog. I'm sure there's a way not to move all these article URLs by hand, but then I have to go and make sure all the inline images come through as well, which were uploaded to blogspot directly.

I mean, I was just looking for a quick solution in college so I can't blame myself, but I do want to run back to 18 year old me and kick my heels a bit for creating such a big chunk of technical debt I doubt I'll ever actually fix.

You can add a third party domain to BlogSpot. It isn't hard at all.

That may not get the result you personally want, but it is completely do-able.

Right now I'm using wordpress installed on a bluehost server, which I uh... have a google domain... pointing to? I'm using this as an opportunity to learn about all this so I have trouble speaking intelligently about it.

It's http://blog.calebjay.com/ - I forgot I actually have the blog set as a subdomain, not an endpoint. It's been a couple months since I've done anything with it... man, it even still has the bluehost default favicon X(

Wordpress has import plugins for a lot of stuff, I bet there is a blogspot importer out there that can suck all content + comments to your WP instance.
