Good info, Mike. I agree with you and I'm not worried too much about the SEO aspect of it all. I'm hoping that the meta refresh, no follow tag, no new content on Blogger, etc. will eventually prove to Google Blog A is dead and start paying attention to Blog B.

PLUS my new blog now lives on my own domain with my well-established homepage pointing to it. I've also removed all links pointing to Blogger. And I just noticed Google already picked up my post from earlier this evening.

The good thing for me is that my Blogger blog was never really that heavily trafficked because I didn't put much effort into it and it only had 97 posts in a year and a half. I only got about 150-200 hits per day. I did have quite a few subscribers but Blogger will redirect your blogger feed to your new one. (I recently started using Feedburner so that's why I had to do that. Most of my subscribers were still subscribed to my blogger feed.)

Theresa, your blog is fairly new so if you're going to jump on the switch, might as well do it now before you have a ton of content to move, lots of traffic, etc.
