  Can you tell me how much you would charge me to move storiesandtruth.wordpress.com to a self-hosted site? I would also need the subscribers moved over.

  Thanks,
  Mollie

  Hi there!

  Can you tell me how much you would charge me to move storiesandtruth.wordpress.com to a self-hosted site?

  You actually have a couple of options here. The first option is that you can do it yourself for free. Here is a support document that will guide you, step-by-step:

  The second option is to have WordPress.com staff do it for you through a guided transfer. It costs $129.00 per blog. Here is a link to the support document that discusses what a guided transfer includes and addresses other FAQ’s:

  I would also need the subscribers moved over.

  Keep in mind, there are a few steps you’ll need to take before you move your subscribers over (e.g. installing the Jetpack plugin), and you can find them here:

  Once you’ve completed these steps, you can either contact staff and have them transfer your subscribers, or you can use this tool to do it yourself:

  Let me know if you have any questions!
