    I have a blog on Blogger since 2006 with about 300 post. The traffic used to be decent but due to family illness I was not as active for almost 2 years of blogging. Now I am back in the swing of things…..Do I MOVE the blog to my own site OR maintain 2 blogs? Of course SEO is a MAJOR concern! Opinion please! AND HOW do I transfer is that is the way to go? Thanks!

    Do not move the blogger blog, leave it as it as, make a announcement/final post that you will be posting on the new blog from now on.

    Fully focus on the latest blog you are creating i.e a fresh start. Unfortunately Google has become more unforgiving due to all the spam in recent years. To play safe keep the old things separate completely. This is just my opinion.
