  Hi

  I moved http://www.funteambuildingactivities.com from WordPress.com to a self hosted installation using WordPress.org.

  In doing this I have lost all of the shares I had built up on previous posts. I understand this is because these are associated with the domain, which is now being forwarded.

  Is there any way of getting the shares back?

  Kind regards

  James

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

  Hi James – Do you mean the counts on your Facebook and Twitter sharing buttons? If so, there’s no way to retain those. They’ll reset when you move.

  We can move your followers, though, if you install the Jetpack plugin on your new site:
