  I have a list of email subscribers that I’d like transferred from http://ledgeendacres.wordpress.com to http://www.ledgeendacres.com . I have Jetpack installed and enabled on the blog page, and have posted a notification on the old page.

  Could I please have the proper transfer done so my subscribers now see my self-hosted page updates?

  Thank you

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

  Provided you have installed and activated the JetPack plugin http://jetpack.me on your WordPress.org install, and you post the relevant URL(s) into a forum thread, Staff will do the transfer of both subscribers and stats for you. http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/moving-your-subscribers/#wordpress-com-to-self-hosted-site I have tagged this thread for their attention.

  Any idea how long this takes to complete? I don’t think it has gone through yet…

  Hi @eurello – thank you ! Is there any way to transfer the email only subscribers as well? I see there’s 26 subscribers on the wordpress hosted site, and only 8 on the self hosted.

  Hi there – It transfers all of them, but you had Facebook connected through publicize on your WordPress.com site, and so your 26 Facebook followers are included in that count. Jetpack doesn’t include the followers of social services you’ve connected through publicize in its count.

  Oh! OK, that makes sense. Thank you so much for your help!
