Help with migration of hosting back to wordpress.
-
Hello. I got a web designer to help give my website a visual refresh but unfortunately he took it too far and also changed our hosting to Dreamhost. I was happy with WordPress hosting and would like to return to wordpress for the hosting of my site. The web developer is now not contactable and is not giving me access to the C-Panel, but I do have the domain registered under my name with wordpress and I have admin access to the wordpress site of course. Is there anyone who can help migrate the site back safely to wordpress hosting. I’m not an expert at all but I’m hoping that someone from wordpress can help with the migration.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to moderators and staff)

Hi there!
We don’t have a website migration service, but we have this handy guide that you can follow to migrate your entire site from another host (like Dreamhost) to WordPress.com:
If you have a website built with WordPress on another hosting provider, generally referred to as a self-hosted WordPress.org site, and want to move it to WordPress.com, use our Import Everything option. The Import Everything option will copy your existing self-hosted WordPress site to your new WordPress.com site, including your content, media, plugins, and the theme. Prerequisites A WOnce the site is migrated, you can point the domain back to your WordPress.com site (or ask us to do it). Your domain is registered with us, so we can take care of it as well.
Your WordPress.com Business plan includes live chat support, so free free to chat with us while transferring if you need any help with the steps. :)
Thanks!
