Hi Twan

Thanks so much for responding to my post!

I have a mainstream (blogspot) blog with a lot of unique (text) content and incoming one way links from related sites, but it is not showing up in any of the search engines, which is why I want to move it to its own domain. When I type in the URL at various SE's, it doesn't appear to be listed with any of them.

When I first launched the site, I added about 50 posts at once, and I was worried that perhaps my blog was penalized as a result of "excessive pinging". My adult WP blogs on their own domains usually get listed in the SE's pretty quickly, as do my thumblogger blogs, and I start getting hits from the SE's to my posts within the first week or two.

I added my RSS feed at Yahoo about a week ago, and manually pinged various blog pinging services. I also posted the link in my sig at various keyword related forums. The blog is PR0 right now at Google. Maybe blogs hosted with blogger take longer to get indexed?

When I move my blog, I want to make sure that it won't be penalized for adding so many posts at one time. But if, as you said, Google and Yahoo don't penalize blogs for this reason, I don't need to worry about this

Thank you so much for clarifying this issue!
