  Hello

  At the begining i create a blog on wordpress.com. Then i bought a domain (morewithlessdesign.com) in the shop of wordpress.com. In summer 2014 i moved the blog to wordpress.ORG, just because of the plugins and the advertising in my blog. Now i want to move my domain to Hostgator and delete the old blog, but wordpress.com says that is not possible because i have the domain bought from wordpres.com.

  Now I’m making the migration from Hostgator, and they ask me for the “Old Hosting Account IP/Hostname” and i can’t find this info.

  How can I know all the details to move the domain?

  Thank you so much,

  Jordi

  Hey there Jordi!

  If you’d like to transfer your domain you can do so here:
  https://morewithlessdesign.wordpress.com/wp-admin/paid-upgrades.php?page=domains

  You can click Edit Domain next to morewithlessdesign.com. Then, click the Transfer Domain tab.

  For even more information about transferring a WordPress.com domain, please check out:

  I hope this helps! If you have any other concerns, drop me a note. Thanks much!
