  I’m trying to transfer my followers from my wordpress.com blog to my new self-hosted blog on wordpress.org. I’ve been reading in the forums that I should install Jetpack. I have Jetpack installed on my new blog, but not sure how to do this on my old blog. I would like someone to let me know the right way to do this. Thanks!

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

  Hi there,
  You can only install and activate JetPack on your self hosted site. Then Staff can do this for you. I tagged this thread for their assistance. Please subscribe to it so you are notified when they respond.

  Thank you. I’m actually subscribed to it on my wordpress.org blog so that shouldn’t be a problem. Do you need the URL for that blog?

  Hello! I have now transferred all your WordPress.com followers over to the JetPack-enhanced site at judy-ismsblog.com.

  It may be a couple hours before you can see them on your stats page, but it usually takes much less time than that. Please reply back if they don’t show up soon.

  Happy blogging. :)

  Hey Matthias – No problem. I have transferred the e-mail and WordPress.com followers from finetobacconyc.wordpress.com over to finetobacconyc.com. You should see them on your new Jetpack stats page within a few hours. If they don’t show up soon, please reply back.
