  Hi there!

  I’m happy to do this for you.

  I see your Jetpack site: http://www.thelodgeonhaydon.com

  Could you tell me from which WordPress.com site you’d like me to move your subscribers?

  Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks very much.

  Thanks so much for your help.

  I would like to move them from http://www.thelodgeonhaydon.wordpress.com

  Which type of followers will this move? Subscribers through email?

  Hello Michaela!

  Great. Thanks for the details.

  I’ve moved your subscribers from thelodgeonhaydon.wordpress.com to http://www.thelodgeonhaydon.com.

  In all, 152 followers were migrated. Here’s the breakdown:
  WP.com Subscribers: 142
  EMail Subscribers: 10

  So, to answer your question, it was all followers that were moved (except, of course, your Facebook and Twitter followers).

  Also, please note that it can take several hours for the subscriber list and totals for your site to be updated, especially if you have many subscribers.

  I hope this helps! If you have any other concerns, drop me a note. Thanks much!

  THANK YOU so much for your help!

  Is there anyway to integrate my stats for the two sites so they are in one location?

  Hey there!

  I sure can.

  Stats are connected directly to posts. So, as long as the post permalinks haven’t changed in the new site, the stat migration should be successful.

  I’ve done the stats merge for you. You should see these in your new site’s stats within a few hours.

  That should do the trick! If I can help in any other way, please drop me a line. Cheers :)
