This allows you to import an unlimited amount of posts, pages, comments, images, labels and authors. You can also choose from some extra options to help with SEO and content formatting.

Blogger Importer Extended can import published posts, pages, tags/labels, comments, images, and authors. It preserves all post/page links, sets up all 301 redirects from Blogger to WordPress, fixes mixed-content, filters spam comments, and enables native lazy-loading on blog post images.
