  Hello, I want to move my followers from my WordPress.com site to my new WordPress.org blog. I read in a forum that as long as I have jetpack installed on my wordpress.org site and they are connected I would be able to send a request to transfer my subscribers from WordPress.com to WordPress.org.

  My wordpress.com site is http://julielindh.com and my wordpress.org site is located at http://jlskinfitness.com/wp.

  Thank you!

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

  Hi there,

  We can transfer any subscribers who are following your blog via email or through the WordPress.com Reader. However, I checked your WordPress.com blog at http://julielindh.com/ and you don’t have any of those subscribers. It looks like the only subscribers left on your WordPress.com blog are social media followers — those show up on your blog when you have Publicize connected under Settings > Sharing in your blog.

  You can make sure those social media followers stay up to date with your new WordPress.org blog by setting up Publicize on Jetpack on that blog. Please let me know if you have any questions about that. :)
