  Hello,

  How can I easily convert my Free WordPress site into my own full WordPress Theme?

  I was grateful for the free WordPress tools, hosted on wordpress.com which enabled me to get this simple site up so quickly. But now I need to get real and I’m hoping that since I’m going from WordPress to the regular, full WordPress that I can make this upgrade without too much trouble.

  I now have my own web hosting space and I have installed WordPress and a theme. I want to basically dump my old site into my full WordPress so that I can have more options to modify.

  Thank you.

  Hi –

  Here is a really helpful guide on moving to a self-hosted site: Moving to Self-Hosted WordPress

  The guide covers everything from purchasing your hosting (which you’ve already done) to migrating your subscribers.

  I hope this helps!
