  Hi Grace,

  Actually this was not done. I checked my jetpack plugin, site stats, and it says I have zero followers and zero subscribers? Can you please help? I have been posting and noticed that nobody is reading! It’s been almost one month :( I would really love it if you could help me and transfer my followers!

  Thank you,
  Ting

  Hi Ting,

  Please make sure you are looking at the right site. Your subscribers have been moved from:

  okaytodayblog.wordpress.com to http://www.alonghappylife.com

  As seen in this link your subscribers have been moved (77 WP.com subscribers and 4 Email subscribers):

  http://wordpress.com/my-stats/?blog=59988448&blog_subscribers&unit=1

  Let me know if thats not what you are seeing.

  Hello,

  Thank you for your response. When I go to alonghappylife.com and click on site stats, I literally see: subscribers: 0; followers: 0.

  I clicked on the link you provided and it looks like those are my followers on wordpress.com. I privatized my wordpress.com site and moved to self-hosting with BlueHost with the domain alonghappylife.com.

  Can you please confirm that my subscribers have been migrated from worpress.com to my self-hosted site?

  Thank you,
  Ting

  The site stats that I provided you was of your WordPress.org Jetpack site: http://www.alonghappylife.com, not your WordPress.com blog. The followers have been moved to your WordPress.org site. Please make sure you are looking at the correct Jetpack blog:

  http://www.alonghappylife.com – is the blog I moved it to.

  Are you sure you are looking at your WordPress.org Dashboard and not your WordPress.com Dashboard? Please log into http://www.alonghappylife.com here:

  https://www.alonghappylife.com/~alongha1/wp-login.php?

  Can you upload a screenshot of the site stats you are seeing in that Dashboard to your Media > Library in your WordPress.com account under the username: tingroo? That log in is here:

  https://okaytodayblog.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  I know this can be a bit confusing so thanks for your patience!

  I logged into the link you sent and the stats say the same: 0 followers and 0 subscribers. However when it is loading, it says “loading wordpress.COM stats”. You are right, it very confusing!

  I just uploaded the screenshot, it is named “stats”.

  Thank you so much for your help!

  Best,
  Ting
