  I have 2 wordpress.com accounts, one for some volunteer non profit sites I am helping and my personal site. Somehow when I created these wordpress accounts my personal site got linked to the non profit wp account. How do I transfer it?

  Hi there,

  You can transfer ownership of a site to another WordPress.com account by following the step-by-step instructions here:

  Let me know if you have any questions or trouble during any point in the process.

  Thanks!

  Thanks but this doesn’t work for me (I found it earlier). The site I am trying to transfer is in ‘Linked Blogs’ not ‘My Blogs’. The linked blogs does not have the same option to transfer

  Hi there,

  Can you please give the URL of the actual site you’re speaking of? Then we’ll be able to more accurately advise you.

  Hi there,

  That is a self-hosted site connected to a WordPress.com account via the Jetpack plugin, however, it’s not this account that it is connected to.

  First, you’ll want to disconnect the plugin from the current WordPress.com account:

  Then, you can go ahead and connect the site to the WordPress.com account that you prefer with the following guide:

  Jetpack

  Hope that helps. Let me know if you have any questions – I can disconnect the site for you if you have any trouble. Thanks!
