Thank you so much for taking the time to create this document. I made the leap to self hosting this weekend. I’ve still got some kinks to work out, but I wouldn’t have gotten this far without your expertise! You ROCK! Thanks again and again!

Hi Wolfie-
First, thanks for the PDF file of tips–much appreciated by all of us out here.

I’m scouring the internet for help.
I’ve just started to go self-hosted–> from WP.com to self hosted using WP software on Blue Host. I’m trying to import my blog XML file, BUT it’s too large. It’s 3+ MB and the WP software says it can only import 2MB file or smaller. What can i do? I’ve seen some posts talking about ’splitting up’ the XML file into smaller files…but i don’t understand how to do this and need step by step instructions. Can you offer me some help, please??
THanks!!
Lisa
