  Newbie here with all things website creation I am trying to move by website from GoDaddy to WordPress, and one of the steps I am at now is to export my GoDaddy site, to XML. I can not for the life of my figure out how to do this from the GoDaddy side of things. Any thoughts?? Everything I’ve read says to go to “Tools > Export” and I just don’t have that option my GoDaddy editing page.

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

  Hi there,
  
  I would definitely encourage you to reach out to Go Daddy, as they should be able to assist you with downloading your WordPress XML file. But, here are their online instructions:

  Once you have the XML file, you can follow the instructions on our support page to import the file to your WordPress.com site:

  Hope this helps. Please let us know if you have any other questions.

  Thanks!
