If I upgrade to a custom domain name do I lose my likes, shares and hits?
-
Just contemplating upgrading domain name and wonder if any posts that have been shared on Twitter, Facebook, etc. will still show, similarly if someone has liked a post and for the number of hits on the blog.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Sadly, yes.
The social network all calculate those stats by using a site’s URL. So if you change the URL, the count reverts to zero. There is no way around this I’m afraid.
