Importing Posts or Pages From Another Site
The WordPress Import feature is also found in the WordPress dashboard under the Tools tab. The import practicality is not incorporated into the WordPress fundamental, though this is for a particular purpose.
Eight import features were officially created by WordPress in addition to some other unofficial importing plugins that are available in the directory.
The purpose for which WordPress extends the import systems to plugins is to ensure that the key version of WordPress is not swollen.

Hi Israel,
This is very interesting. I have an old site with about 150 posts. However, I made the mistake of knocking out content really fast while not paying attention to the small, but really important details:
URLs
Keywords
Image names etc
As a result, I have lots of useful content that isn't getting ranked. I too know that it is bad to change URLs or content once published. So... I am considering building a new website.
Now for the questions:
1. Is it best to make the post improvements on the old site before moving it to the new one?
2. Do the new posts automatically have the URLS of the new site?
e.g.
Old. www.about-going-green.com/home-exercise-routines
New www.aboutgoinggreen.com/home-exercise-routines
3. Some of my posts have been developed in ThriveThemes, will this work be transferred over too?
I really appreciate your help!

I moved posts from one site to a new website. I am no longer going to be posting to the old website. What is the best way to handle this? It looks like from posts below that I will be okay to leave the old website up for 2-3 months and then delete it correct?

Thanks for this training. I just moved some posts from one category from one of my blogs to one of my new blogs where that moved category is the main purpose for the new blog.
Question is, what is the best way to delete all of those post (and it is a good amount) from the old site? I will get dinged if Google and others read that the content is duplicate content, right?
I never thought about the amount of work now that I am going to have to do to make these post good for the new blog. All of those links that were moved now need to be changed and redirected also.
