How do I purchase a Site Redirect from the WordPress.com Store?
-
I have just moved a WP blog from a domain that I do not own to my own WP domain. I wanted to redirect from my old blog domain to the new one but I do not understand how.
On page “Site direct” http://en.support.wordpress.com/site-redirect/ , it says “Purchase a Site Redirect from the WordPress.com Store.” When I go to the Store http://store.wordpress.com/premium-upgrades/redirect/ and click on the blue button “Redirect your site” nothing happens.
Is that because I am not the owner of the domain I am moving from or is there something else that I do not understand?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

The old is http://bengts.blogg.viivilla.se/ , owned by the Swedish magazine Vi i Villa, but I have the rights to all material on the site (about 650 posts and more than 3 000 comments).
The new is http://bengtsvillablogg.info/ , that I own myself.

Neither of those are WordPress.COM Blogs, so you cannot purchase WordPress.com upgrades for them. There may be some options for you, but you’d have to ask in the WordPress.ORG forums where that version of the software is supported.

Aha… my mistake. Your advice helped!
I found a plug-in for redirection of .org blogs: https://wordpress.org/plugins/redirection/

I was too fast. The plug-in Redirection makes a redirection from my new domain to somewhere else, so I have to find another solution…
