  I have Jetpack on my self-hosted WordPress and I am moving my blog hisforhillman.wordpress.com to the self-hosted build.

  I have 80+ followers on the WordPress.com blog, I already connected Jetpack. i read if I post here I will get help with making sure my followers are visible in the new site stats (it isn’t right now).

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

  Hi there, I can move your followers from your WordPress.com blog to the self-hosted blog for you.

  Your email followers will continue to receive email updates, and your WordPress.com followers will continue to see your new posts in the Reader. If your WordPress.com followers would like to receive email updates, as well, they can subscribe via email on your new blog.

  Please let me know if you have any questions about that. If that sounds good to you, please reply to confirm and I will go ahead and move your followers. :)

  Hi Rachel, sounds good. Sorry to ask but does this cost something? (making sure).

  Thanks for confirming. :) There’s no cost — I just moved your followers over to your self-hosted site, so you’re all set! Let me know if I can help with anything else.
