  I have a bunch of people who have subscribed to my WP.com site since I am now self hosted, I would like to move all of the subscribers from Minimotives.wordpress.com over to minimotives.com. I made this transfer RIGHT in the middle of getting a ton of hits on the WP.com site and so I am continuing to get subscribers on the WP.com site, is there a way I can set that to continue to subscribe any new sign-ups there to automatically sign up for the self hosted site?

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

  I have migrated your subscribers and followers to your new site.

  is there a way I can set that to continue to subscribe any new sign-ups there to automatically sign up for the self hosted site?

  There is not. But once you have WordPress.com traffic pointing to your new site as discussed in your other support thread, you shouldn’t have a problem. People visiting any incoming links will be sent to your self-hosted site. If a few stragglers still subscribe via WordPress.com, we can always run the migration again in a week or two.

  Let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.
