How To Convert A Static HTML Site To WordPress

For those of you looking to convert an html site - whether a single sales page, or multi-page site - I just stumbled over a site that gives easy step-by-step instructions to do so.

Good info to have. Might be helpful to upgrade an aged domain into a Google love fest.

Here's another link for xhtml/css. Don't know if this is multipage, but for a single salespage it involves merely chopping it up, and uploading as a Theme.

I know it works, as I tried it for my salesletter and it rendered perfectly. Unfortunately I deleted it as I was still working on the letter. Now I'm ready to do it again and I couldn't find where I'd put the bloody bookmark. Dontcha hate that!

I've googled and thankfully found it again, and it's pretty straightforward for a single salespage (mine wasn't xhtml as far as I know, just plain ole html, but it didn't seem to make a difference):

Very useful link -- I wish I had it before I paid someone a zillion dollars to convert my page heavy html site to wordpress.

That's an idea....once you've got it down pat, I imagine it could be offered as a service to others too.

Yet another way to earn some quick cash.
