  L.S., I want to bring my blog to another hosting company. They ask me: can I receive from WordPress a complete copy of the blog? Maybe this is the same as transferring the blog, but I’m not sure, I know very little of the technique. I have made the blog from august until now november, but I have kept it private.
  Name of the blog: http://www.centrumaltro
  My name: Corrie Terlouw, Boxtel, The Netherlands.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You can export your blog to import to a new WordPress.org install with another hosting company. Here are the instructions: Export

  You can also purchase Guided Transfer help if you want it.

  Yes. But the file is only content, it needs to be imported into a new WordPress.org install site with its own theme, etc. You have to create the site first, then import the content.
