  Hello!

  I have recently migrated my blog to wordpress, and purchased a .com domain (annotatedaffliction.com) through you guys.

  I am hoping you can help me to redirect traffic from my blogger blog (http://annotatedafflictions.blogspot.com.au/) to my new wordpress blog.

  Thanks!

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

  Hi there!

  To redirect traffic from your Blogger blog to your blog here at WordPress.com, you’ll actually need to make a change over at Blogger. (WordPress.com can’t control what happens when someone visits your Blogger blog.)

  Unfortunately, based on what I found in the Blogger Help Center, it isn’t possible to redirect a Blogger blog to a blog hosted somewhere else. Instead, Blogger recommends that you create a post on the Blogger blog with a link to your new blog:

  https://support.google.com/blogger/answer/42211?hl=en

  If you have any other questions about that, I’d recommend posting in the Blogger Help Forum to see if there are any other options for redirecting traffic away from your Blogger blog.
