  Am migrating my self-hosted WP site to WP.com. Content came across fine. Can I also migrate my user data? I have about 30K names and email addresses.

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

  Hi @harpercollegece – Have you reviewed this guide: https://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-from-self-hosted-wordpress-to-wordpress-com/

  It walks you through, step by step, on moving form WordPress.org to WordPress.com.

  Thanks. Again, I want to migrate a list of thousands of users to the new site on WP.com. I don’t see this situation covered in the docs, only how to invite users, up to ten at a time, to subscribe. What am I missing?

  You are going to need to install Jetpack in order to move the subscribers. https://jetpack.com/
