Mageplaza is a real competitor of Magefan, especially when we are talking about the blog extension for Magento 2. We always jealous, how they can have so many reviews on their Blog extension. As you know if a customer is happy he/she don't want to write a review. Every day Magefan team fights to get a new awesome review from our customers, we provide a free extension, free support, free guides, "sing and dance", do all we can to make our customers happy.
And today (April 3, 2019) we found something really interesting on Mageplaza website. No charges, judge for yourself.
Please open Mageplaza Blog Extension and Magefan Blog Extension. And compare reviews and their dates. In case they will be removed from mageplaza.com we prepared screenshots.

original review from magefan.com:
To configure Blog XML sitemap in Magento 2 please, first of all, make sure that Magento default XML sitemap has been configured properly.
Once you have configured Magento XML sitemap for products, categories, CMS pages, blog sitemap will be generated automatically and will be available by the same path as your default XML sitemap but with "blog_" prefix.
Example 1
Default XML Sitemap URL: https://domain.com/sitemap.xml
Blog XML Sitemap URL: https://domain.com/blog_sitemap.xml
Example 2
Default XML Sitemap URL: https://domain.com/pub/en_sitemap.xml
Blog XML Sitemap URL: https://domain.com/pub/blog_en_sitemap.xml
To configure the XML sitemap in Magento 2 please go to Marketing > Seo & Search > Site Map. Choose an existing sitemap to edit or if you don't have any XML sitemap yet press the Add Sitemap button.
According to the GDPR, every customer from the European Union (EU) has the right to remove his or her account from the store. There are a lot of different Magento 2 extensions which allow to do that and delete it instantly. However, it is not the best way to do so as there always is a chance to make customers change their decision or for them to remove their account by accident. So we are going to show you how it is done in Magento GDPR extension by Plumrocket.
In order to delete an account, a customer needs to visit his/her account, go to My Privacy Center and find Delete your Account section.
If you sell globally you are aware of GDPR which is required in European Union (EU). Cookies notification is definitely annoying and not needed to be shown to people from outside EU.
That's why you may want it to be restricted depending on a visitor's country.
In order to restrict cookie popup by country, we recommend to use Magento GDPR extension by Plumrocket.
Once you have installed this extension please go to Admin Panel > Stores > Configuration > Plumrocket >GDPR > Cookie Consent Notice section.

1. Make sure that Magento 2 instance that uses DB2 has the same blog extension version as one that uses DB1. If not please upldate Magento 2 blog module on one of them.

3. Remove all magefan_blog_* tables from DB2.
4. Make export (dump) of all magefan_blog_* tables from DB1
5. Import dump to DB2.
Using this instruction you'll easily migrate ALL blog data from DB1 to DB2. For database manipulations you can use phpMyAdmin, Adminer.
