About 1 year ago I started a blog. I initially used to to see how blogs work and it is hosted on blogger. Over time I have added content etc to the blog and it seems to have made its way on to various search engines for the intended keywords that I am targeting. In fact it has even landed a spot in Google Finance for a particular company.

I am considering moving it to one of my domains and I know that I can do this in blogger, but am really hesitant to do so because of the rankings that it has and I really do not want to lose that spot on Google Finance as the blog is for that intented comapny.

Does anyone know what would happen if i moved the blog from its current blogger host over my own host? I would appreciate any kind of advice that you may be able to offer as I really want to move this soon.

Thanks.

If you move your blog, then your new blog will have no links to it. You can't do 301 redirects with blogger.

I had a feeling that was going to happen. Oh well, I will have to think of something else. Thanks.
