My developer is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP.
I have always disliked the idea because of the costs.
But he's tryiong none the less. I've been using WordPress on a variety of websites for
about a year and am anxious about switching to another platform.
I have heard good things about blogengine.net. Is there
a way I can import all my wordpress content into it?
Any help would be really appreciated!
