  Hello!

  How can I connect my new hosting company to my wordpress account? I have Go Daddy now and had Blue Host prior? Do I need to create a new account?

  Thanks!
  Carrie

  Hi Carrie,

  do you mean to connect your site hosted elsewhere to your WordPress.com account? If so, you’ll want to install the Jetpack plugin on that site:

  For more help, I suggest you post here: https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

  http://wordpress.org/support/ is also a great resource for sites using the open source WordPress.org software.

  Because WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two entirely separate entities, we cannot access files or data for sites that are hosted elsewhere, so WordPress.com staff can only assist with sites that are hosted on our servers. You can read more about the differences between WordPress.org software and WordPress.com here:
