  I need help with the guided transfer process.
  I want to use the service but I am already hosted with spexhost who is not on the recommended providers list they gave in the description for guided transfer.
  I have installed the wordpress.org software on the new server.
  my wordpress.com site is a ####.wordpress.com account
  does anything happen to the other blogs that are under that account profile as it is the main one with 2 other small blogs.
  are there any restrictions after doing it.
  Can I still Use it?

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

  And I’ve done a little research for you and here is a staff reply about using a different hosting service other than those recommended, the short answer is no. The long answer is

  Hi theeverydayathletenews,

  The Guided Transfer option is available only for our list of recommended hosting providers. It is also a per-blog service. We could transfer one blog while your others would remain just as they are now. The content for the blog you transferred could remain intact here on WordPress.com as well unless you wished to delete it.

  Please refer to the support document justjennifer linked for more details.
