  I want to migrate my wordpress website to godaddy. But when I started the process the following message pop up ‘Sites hosted by WordPress.com cannot be migrated due to limitations in their hosting, you’ll need to contact their support for help.’

  WP.com: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to moderators and staff)

  Hi @kartiksxn68

  If you are looking to have the ability to upload any plugin or theme to your site (or access your site source code, FTP, etc.) you can do that here if you wish, no need to migrate.

  To gain those options on your site you can upgrade to the WordPress.com Business Plan which will move your site to our managed business hosting service. Learn more about our WordPress.com Business Plan here: https://wordpress.com/pricing/

  Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have any more questions.
