    i have a wordpress.com site but bought a domain name with another host that i want to migrate it to.
    i am trying to use filezilla and need to know what ‘host’ to use and what user and password… so i can download the files to my “local site”

    There’s no FTP access to WordPress.com sites.

    You will need to create an export file from your site’s Dashboard by following these instructions:

    Please note that during the import process in your standalone WordPress install you should tick the box for importing media, but your WordPress.com site must be live and visible (not private).
