  Hello there!

  You will need to reset the cosmetic elements of your site. For instance, you will have to choose a new WordPress.com theme, as third-party themes are not uploadable to WordPress.com sites.

  Additionally, third-party plugins are not usable on WordPress.com sites. We may be able to provide the same functionality with widgets, but if there are any plugins that are vital to your site, you should confirm that those features can be matched at WordPress.com.

  All of your content (text, posts, pages, media, etc) should transfer when you make the move.

  Here is some information that will step you through the process of moving from a self-hosted site to WordPress.com.

  If you run into any issues, feel free to reply back as we’d be happy to assist.

  Please let us know if you have any other questions. Thanks much!
