Hi there,
Staff will be able to assist you in transferring your stats, so I’ve added the tag modlook in the right sidebar.
If you need to move your subscribers over, you can do that yourself by following this guide:
You’ll want to make sure you’ve installed and activated the Jetpack plugin first.
Good luck!

Hi there,
I have merged the stats from hencorner.wordpress.com to hencorner.com as requested.
Please let me know if you have any other questions or if you need help with your subscribers.
Thanks!

Hi,
Thanks for moving the stats across.
My developer has told me that we can’t have these stats showing on the front page of the new self hosted site and is recommending that we focus on using Google analytics, see below, is there any way around this? I don’t really want to start from scratch as I had nearly 150k views…‘I have researched this thoroughly, to move stats over you have to use a plugin called Jetpack. Sadly Jetpack do not allow to print the stats on the front end of the website. All the stats are now controlled by jetpack as its no longer hosted on wordpress.com. I looked for a widget for jetpack, but the only one that does this is not compatible with the latest version of wordpress and has not been updated in 2 years. To add google analytics will not have any stats recorded from the past, it will only build up from the day its added. I have no other solution for this. Sorry.’

Hi there,
Your developer is correct. it’s not impossible, but there is no easy way to display your JetPack stats on the front end. If your developer wants to look into it, he can create his own shortcode to get the stats for you, but that will take some work.
