I recently purchased XsitePro to Wordpress because I’ve been tired of creating XsitePro 2 sites adding blogs and then having them look completely different. I’m probably a little bit of a tweak when it comes to that though, as I always prefer a clean simple style.

The purchase price for XsitePro to Wordpress is around $49 at the time of this writing so I thought that was a bit high At First!

It comes with a

• 60 page E-book covering all aspects of conversion
• 7 concise videos on each step of conversion
• A code text file with the code you’ll be modifying.

Overall it’s a pretty simple job that most anyone with a little bit of time, a text editor and a bit of tenacity can accomplish. It took me a couple hours on my first one, and then about an hour on the second one, but many people could probably do it much faster if they’re good at following directions. I ran into trouble on some of the copying and it spit out jumbled code which Wordpress apparently has a hard time reading Myles helped me out through support and it was soon worked out.

Overall $49 is a small price to pay for continuity between your site and your blog. Myles O’Reilly and Karol Thor have really made a step-by-step system anyone can follow to create Wordpress templates out of XsitePro 2 templates. I highly recommend this to anyone who is searching for a way to bring their site and their blog together.

A Look at the Finished Product

Update 12/6/08: I’ve noticed an increasing amount of traffic making it to my main sales site after the conversion using xsiteprotowordpress.  I highly recommend it.
