    I have a WordPress.org site which is hosted by Hostgator (domain). My domain will expiry on 1 Feb 19.
    I wish to transfer my site as soon as possible to WordPress.com and that WordPress.com hosts my site.
    Please where can I find help? I don’t know how to do it.
    Thank you.

    Hi petraeinwiller0354,

    The following link has all the information you will need to transfer your Domain to WordPress.com.
    https://en.support.wordpress.com/incoming-domain-transfer/

    You can either map the domain or transfer the registration. The cost of transferring is almost the same as the renewal of a domain.

    The only thing to keep in mind is that you will need an upgraded WordPress.com plan.

    Hope I helped. :)

    Cheers.

    Hi weirdchhori,

    sincere apologies for my late response to your kind reply and help.
    I came down with the flu and am just about beginning to use my brain again.

    Thank you very much for pointing me into the right direction.

    I followed the link and read through the instructions. I understand about the upgrade, that’s fine.

    However, I’m a novice in this blog business, and I think I need to find someone who can help me with transferring my domain, to be on the safe side.

    But thanks to your help, once I find someone, that shouldn’t take too long.

    Cheers
