Wordpress to BlogEngine.NET Migration Part 1

In my last post about our complete move to .NET I mentioned that we would trial BlogEngine.NET. After a fairly short trial we are going to attempt a Wordpress to BlogEngine.NET migration! This, in essence, seems a fairly straight forward transition to make but we will have to see how the URLs turn out. Obviously they will be different to the Wordpress ones, and should still retain the keyword richness, but only time will tell. I will post part 2 when the migration is complete and we can edit Wordpress posts in BlogEngine.NET as well as reference any code we have borrowed. As well as being written in C# (our favourite language), BlogEngine.NET is also remarkably easy to theme, in contrast to Wordpress where you need to change several files and know PHP. With BlogEngine.NET there are 3 code files plus the CSS and you don't even need to know any ASP.NET, though HTML would be advantageous.
