  I have a self-hosted blog, at http://www.software4nonprofits.com/blog, that I have just exported and imported to a new WordPress.com blog, at donationusers.wordpress.com.

  I have two types of followers there, both Subscriber-type Users, and users who subscribed with the Subscribe2 plugin.

  How do I transfer them all to the new blog? Thanks!

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

  Were you using Jetpack before? We can only import subscribers from the Jetpack subscription service, not Subscribe2 or any other subscriber plugins.

  Can JetPack transfer over my subscriptions from Subscribe2, and Users of type Subscriber? Would that allow you to do the transfer?

  If not, is there no other way, like if I give you a text or Excel file with one email address per line or something?

  Unfortunately, no. Jetpack can only import WordPress.com subscribers, and WordPress.com can only import Jetpack subscribers. There is no way around that at the moment.
