How to move site stats from wordpress.com site to self hosted site
-
I recently migrated from my wordpress.com site (https://thebrandradio.wordpress.com/) to a self-hosted site (thebrandradio.com) but I need help on how to migrate the wordpress.com site stats to the self-hosted site
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

So, I can help you with that. But there are two issues.
1. The WordPress.com user account that you are posting from is not the owner or admin of https://thebrandradio.wordpress.com/.
So you must have ended up with a second WordPress.com account at some point. You will need to log into the other account in order to transfer any https://thebrandradio.wordpress.com/ stats.
2. I’m not seeing thebrandradio.com as being connected to Jetpack. In order to transfer stats, a site must be connected to Jetpack and it must be connected via the same WordPress.com user account that owns the WordPRess.com site that the stats are coming from.

Ok thanks… But connecting jetpack to https://thebrandradio.com brings up an error message

This is the error message i get –
Error Details: The Jetpack server was unable to communicate with your site [HTTP 404]. Ask your web host if they allow connections from WordPress.com. If you need further assistance, contact Jetpack Support: http://jetpack.com/support/

Every WordPress.COM blog has a sole owner. It is the person with the WordPress.COM username account who registered the blog under that username account and a single associated email address, and who is the original Admin of the blogs registered under that username account, and who purchased upgrades for the sites registered under that account.
You have to be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog’s dashboard. The Admin login link to the dashboard for every blog hosted by wordpress.COM is:
http://NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/
* You will have to replace “name_of_blog” with the actual blog’s name in that URL.
After the blog’s owner logs in clicking this link should display all blogs registered under the same username account, including the hidden ones: https://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs&show=hidden

If you are not logged in under the correct username account then clear your browser cache https://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/#clearing-your-browser-cache and cookies https://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/#clearing-wordpress-com-cookies prior to logging into another account
If the blog’s owner does not see the blog here http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/ then they need to follow this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/#my-blogs-dashboard-visibility
If the log-in information is lost they need to visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
If you do not have the required access you need to contact the person who registered the account and site under it and have them transfer the sites to your username account by using this process. http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#transferring-your-blog-to-another-user-or-account

Ask your web host if they allow connections from WordPress.com.
Have you asked your webhost if they allow connections from WordPress.com?
