I am the author of popular blog (2000+ subscribers) hosted on [login to view URL] [1]. I need to migrate my blog to my own site [2], including all posts and comments. All new posts will be on this new blog, and it must look very clean and professional. My site's CMS is Drupal (version 5.1, I believe), so the blog should use the Drupal blog module. Strong preference will be given to developers with blog module experience.
I'd like to get the project finished within 2-4 weeks.
Specifics:
o Set up Drupal-based blogging (Drupal blog module) on my site.
o Migrate all posts, comments, and tags from [login to view URL] to new blog, with proof of success.
o Update all old [login to view URL] posts (~180 of them) to point to equivalent on new blog.
o Configure new blog appearance to match rest of my site.
o Set up RSS feed. (Expertise required re: best approach to subscriptions and tracking, e.g., one FeedBurner feed.)
o Create sidebar sections to match [login to view URL] ones, including author profile (picture, bio), links (LinkedIn, contact info), link for email-based subscriptions, popular posts (manually-edited), and 'recent posts' (automatic).
