  I would like to move my followers from my old http://cestmoiblogdotcom.wordpress.com to the new site http://www.cestmoiblog.com/. In my wordpress.org for some reason I only have 10 followers but in my wordpress.com website I have over 280. I’m sure I activate Jetpack too. Thanks

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

  Hi there,

  I have moved over all your WordPress.com subscribers as requested. Please keep in mind that while your email subscribers will continue to receive email notifications of new posts as before, WordPress.com followers will only see new posts in the Reader. They will not receive email updates unless they subscribe to receive those on your new site.

  Also, please note that the follower count for your WordPress.com blog included social media (such as Facebook). If you have Publicize set up on your new WordPress.org blog, those social media followers will continue getting updates via your social media sites.

  Happy blogging!

  Thank you very much! But I keep seeing on the web that I have 12 followers when previously had 280. Is everything okay?

  Hi there,

  Yes, everything is okay. The other followers you saw for your WordPress.com blog were your social media followers through Publicize. As long as you have Publicize set up on your new blog, those social media followers will continue to receive your updates.
