  Hi,
  I’m being hosted by BlueHost and it’s up for renewal. I don’t want to lose the information on the site, but also don’t want to be paying $500 to have this site. I’m okay with changing the name to wordpress.com/katieandangus or something like that, but not sure how to go about this.

  Thanks,
  Katie

  hi,

  To transfer your entire self-hosted site to WordPress.com, please see:
  https://transferto.wordpress.com/

  A very important step is to export from your Bluehost site and import the contents into your WordPress.com site.

  Export Your Website’s Content

  Please note that you will only be able to transfer your content, not your theme or plugins.

  Please remember to complete your Import before you terminate your Bluehost site.
