I’ve finally managed to step away from Wordpress and migrated my blog to Octopress. There were many reasons for me, the main reason was that I didn’t want to host it by myself anymore.
The migration itself was guided by some blog posts which helped me a lot to get insights into Octopress:
- Migrating 40,000 Posts From Wordpress to Octopress
- Octopress SEO and Disabling the Blog Route
- Custom Domain With Octopress and Github Pages
- Create Custom Rss Feed for Octopress
- Add Flattr to Octopress
Besides that I managed to keep all the old URLs and migrated the comments to Diqus which went pretty smooth with very little configuration.
