  The Site Redirect feature (for moving away from WordPress.com, it serves a 301 permanent redirect to the URL of your choice) only redirects to http://, not https://. Any plans to support redirects to SSL secured sites?

  This is something only staff can answer. I’ll tag this thread for their attention since the support contact form is down right now.

  The site redirect upgrade is designed to redirect your WordPress.com blog to an externally hosted WordPress blog with the same permalink structure.

  Unfortunately, it’s not designed to distinguish between HTTP and HTTPS, but I’ll let our developers know that there’s some interest.
