    Hi there!

    We’ll be happy to help you migrate your domains and websites to WordPress.com. The best way to migrate your site to WordPress.com would be to get started with a WordPress.com plan first and then migrate your entire site to WordPress.com. When all content is migrated, you can transfer the domain to WordPress.com and set it as the primary address.

    By the way, do you have two separate sites on those domains? Or do you use them on the same site?

    Also, assuming you have custom themes and plugins on your site that you’d like to continue using, I recommend starting with the WordPress.com Creator plan, which supports plugins and comes with many advanced hosting features, such as real-time automatic backups and malware scanning.

    To get started with a new site, please click here and choose the WordPress.com Creator plan. I recommend choosing the yearly billing. The yearly WordPress.com plans come with a free domain credit for the first year. You can use that credit to transfer your domain for free.

    Once your new site is created, please follow the steps here to get started with migrating your site to WordPress.com:
