  I have a business and there are many things I want to put on my site that WordPress.com does not lend itself to. When I started, I didn’t realize there was a .com and a .org. So now I’m very limited and need to make the switch.

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

  This guide will step you through the process of moving your WordPress.com site to a self hosted WordPress:

  We only support sites hosted here at WordPress.com, so all issues with the new site – including the importing of the file – must be taken to the WordPress.org support community:

  If you’d like assistance moving your WordPress.com site to WordPress.org, we have a service called Guided Transfer that does all the work for you. Check it out to see if it’s right for you:
