  I can’t find the tool in my dashboard to help me import my WP.com blog followers to my current self-hosted site http://www.russianfilipinokitchen.com. I went through the options one by one but don’t see the button or command. Please help. I want both my followers and email subscribers moved. Thanks a lot!

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

  Hi Mia!

  You have several blogs here on WordPress.com, if you’ll please confirm from which of those blogs you’d like the subscribers moved to your self-hosted site (at russianfilipinokitchen.com) I’d be happy to make the transfer for you.

  Or if you’d prefer to do it yourself, please make sure you’ve activated the Subscription module in your Jetpack settings (which look like this), then follow these steps:

  Either way, both your WordPress.com followers and email subscribers will be moved to the self-hosted site.

  Thanks Alex G for the instructions! I just did it myself and should see my subscribers in my self-hosted site.

  Awesome!

  Hope everything goes well with the self-hosted blog. If you ever need help with your other sites still here on WordPress.com, just let me know. :)

  If you’re still getting acquainted with the software from WordPress.org, there are great support resources here:
