  We would like to redirect our WordPress.com blog to the blog section on our wordpress.org company website. I understand that we could do a site redirect (https://en.support.wordpress.com/site-redirect/) to http://www.mynewsite.com/blog but in our case the permalink structure is different.

  On the wordpress.com site it is: http://example.com/2014/10/21/sample-post/ and on the new site it is: http://newsite.com/sample-post without the date in the URL. I assume a site redirect to http://www.newsite.com/blog would cause all redirects to land on our mainblog page and since that wouldn’t be relevant the user would simply leave.

  Is there anyway to specify 301 redirects for individual blog posts? We are open to a paid option if it’s available.

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

  We cannot change the permalink structure on any wordpress.COM blogs and the site redirect upgrade will not work unless the same permalink structure exists on the self-hosted wordpress.ORG install.

  The answer is no.
