  Hi @tealrosewrites, sure. We don’t have an import tool for the site service you’re using, but you can absolutely copy and paste the content into new pages on our service.

  I’d recommend choosing a theme here that’s closest to the colors and style you want. Or, if you have Premium, you can adjust the style and colors for the whole site. Layouts are fairly flexible.

  Then, add each of your pages. You can go to https://wordpress.com/page and use one of our layouts (just replace text and images as needed) or start with a blank page. Publish one page for each page on your existing site, and try to use the same names for SEO purposes.

  Finally, you can tie it all together by editing the front page, menu, and making any needed changes to the template or style. I hope this helps!
