  The process is to hire a web host and set up a WordPress.org install.
  Export the content out of your free hosted WordPress.com blog in an XML file.
  Import your content into your WordPress.org install.
  Links are exported and imported separately.
  All content in text widgets must be copied and pasted as it cannot be exported.
  Themes here at WordPress.com cannot be exported and used on WordPress.org installs as they are not coded to run on that software.
  If you wish to you can purchase a Guided transfer and have Staff do this for you.
