One of my areas of expertise are Blogger to WordPress transfers. As such, I’ve encountered just about every problem and error that can come from moving your blog to Blogger from WordPress. In short, you should not see a drop in traffic. If you do, something has gone wrong with the transfer.
The single most common issue I find people having is that their Blogger Mobile Redirect (Blogger adds a ?m=1 to the end of these links) is not redirecting correctly. This never happened until a few months ago, but every blog I have transferred lately has, even with the help of the Blogger 301 Redirect Plugin (my redirect plugin of choice.) I finally was able to figure out how to solve this problem, and it’s a pretty easy fix! I found this post, which is great, but I thought I would provide a more step-by-step tutorial for those of you who have no idea how to find your .htaccess file!
First, go login to Cpanel via your hosting account.
Navigate to File Manager. Click File Manager, press the radio button for “document root”, and then check the box for “show hidden files.” Then press “Go”.
A new page will open, which essentially has all the files your site contains. This is where I always go if a file needs to be fixed or edited. 
You will want to find the .htaccess file. You can see it at the very end of the screenshot above. Click on that, and then the code editor option at the top of the page. It will give you a warning about saving a backup, and then you can click on edit or cancel. Obviously, press edit.
A new window will open. Sometimes there will be a lot of text here to sort through, but if you just migrated to WordPress, you probably will be able to find this piece of code pretty easily:
After you’ve located it, you will take this code:
[code language=”css”]
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^m=1$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /$1? [R=301,L]
[/code]
And place it directly below the RewriteBase / part of the code above. It should look like this:
Press save changes, and you should be good to go! Go check your posts and see that they are working. If you need any help or want someone to do this for you, I charge $15 for mobile redirection fixes. Good luck!
THANK YOU SO MUCH DEAR KATİ CLARK. I APPLY YOUR DİRECTİONS FOR MY OLD BLOGGER İNDEXES OF MY MOBİLE SİTE VERSİON LİKE “WWW.EXAMPLE/…../M=1”. AFTER THAT METHOD ALL OF MY İNDEXES İS WORKİNG CLEARLY.
I’M SO GLAD OF YOUR HELPFUL POST FOR THİS PROBLEM. NOBODY TELLS BETTER THAN YOU. THAK YOU SO MUCH AGAİN:)))
I’ve tried this, and it works for a day or two, and then it appears WordPress clears out the change made. I did a little reading and it appears that this is expected to happen. Any thing added in between # BEGIN WordPress and #END WordPress will be erased by WordPress regularly.
Have you had this issue? How would you recommend I remedy this issue, as I need this rewrite rule to stay permanently on the site.
I would just recommend putting it at the very top of the htaccess file, before the #BEGIN I’m so sorry that I never responded to this!
its working, but my wordpess always reload….
Hmm what do you mean?
Will this help with redirecting when Pinterest pins are clicked on? I migrated from Blogger to WP in November and my traffic has really dropped but I realized all of my old pins still direct to the Blogger blog so I’m still getting traffic to that website.
Yep, it should help! Also make sure you turned off your mobile site on Blogger.
Really great post. I am enjoyed your article. Thanks for sharing a great tips with us
Hi,
I have a problem, old blog site redirecting properly on PC but not working for mobile.
Can you help me please.
Than you
Turn off mobile theme…
How about the ?m=0 format for mobile URL, this one is also needed to be dealt with, so far after a few times make blog walking I only meet the ?m=1 fixing tutorials but not ?m=0.
Hmmm, I haven’t seen that unfortunately!
Kathie and Forrest, Thank you so much for writing this post! It fixed my redirect issue and I am so thankful!
I’m so glad!
Thankyou Sir i am doing this trick on my website and its working. Thnkyou very much.
Great article love from Manu??.
maybe it works on self hosted site.
But,
how do i remove ?m=1 on Blogger platform? since there is no cpanel in blogger.
I really need that code to be gone, or redirected from ?m=1 to ?m=0, using some kind of javascript or jquery maybe.
Unfortunately this is only a fix for WordPress, not blogger.
Thanks, was able to fix my blogger redirection for my blog Fortizo Light
