Changing from .com to .org
-
Can I take a website written on wordpress.com, over to wordpress.org. Assuming thats possible, can I then, working though my internet service provider use our registered domain name laketekapountouched.co.nz instead of laketekapountouched.wordpress.com/ ?
Ive tried to read about mapping and using other domain names in the support article, but being a bit obtuse I don’t quite understand. Any help appreciated.
Blog url: http://laketekapountouched.wordpress.com/ -
To some degree I have found the answer to my own questions here,
but perhaps someone would still like to comment.

First, you’ll need to install WordPress from http://wordpress.org/ on a hosting provider. We have some recommendations at http://get.wordpress.com/hosting/
Once that’s done, you can move your content following this guide: http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#moving-to-wordpress-org
To clear up any confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different entities.
http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/WordPress.org has complete support and documentation sites for self-hosted/installed versions of WordPress at:
http://wordpress.org/support/
http://codex.wordpress.org/We do offer yearly and one-time premium support packages for self-hosted WordPress sites through our VIP program, available at http://vip.wordpress.com
Please let us know if you have any more questions!
