How to transfer blog articles from a non-wordpress site to wordpress (3 posts)

    I'm working for a real estate agent and setting up her WordPress site. I'm trying to move content from her old site, http://www.christinekhoury.com to her wordpress site, which is http://www.chapelhillconnection.com (but will later be http://www.christinekhoury.com, once I get the WordPress thing up and going).

    I'm at the point where I want to transfer all of her blog articles over to WordPress. Is there an easier way to do this other than just copying and pasting the blog posts from http://www.christinekhoury.com and making new posts on the wordpress site?

    Everything depends on what blog software she is using now. I could not easily tell by looking at her existing site.

    All that said, most of the answers are here:

    I can't tell what she's running her blog on now either. If it's one of the supported solutions listed at the link above it's a pretty straightforward process.

    If it's now and if you have access to the database you could write a custom script to pull out the content into an XML file, or SQL which you could then import with another script. This is a pretty tech oriented endeavor though.
