I know a few of you here have TypePad blogs. I'm thinking of switching. I currently have self-hosted wordpress that is privately hosted with a blog friend in Australia, but she prefers to do all the updates to avoid anyone breaking the server, so things don't get updated. I thought about just switching to another host, but I really don't have the time or inclination to learn how to do the constant back-end updating that needs to be done. I just want to blog.
About a year or so ago, I thought about going back to Blogger, but they won't import blogs from other formats, only other blogger blogs, so I can't do that, and I don't want to individually move every single post and comment. Has anyone used the import tool from WP to Typepad? Also, the mid-priced plan allows full template customization. Is it worth it? How much will I be able to customize with only the $8.95 plan? Is the extra $5/mo worth it?
