  Hello Chellie,

  Ok, can you tell me what Website X and Website Y is please?

  And just to check, website Y is the intended location where everything is meant to end up?

  Many thanks in advance.

  Hello Chellie,

  Ok thank you for that confirmation.

  Ok, so it looks like chellieirish.com is with another hosting provider.

  So, to move the site itself, you would first need to reach out to https://www.hostingireland.ie/ to see if they have a migration tool available to use, to move the site.

  Failing that, you can move the site using this plugin here: https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/all-in-one-wp-migration/ , please see how to use this plugin here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpWxCeUWBOk&feature=emb_title

  Once that’s one, you would need to move the domain from WordPress.com to the new hosting provider.

  Please see how to this here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/move-domain/transfer-domain-registration/

  I hope this helps.
