Transfer from WordPress.com to WP engine hosting via GoDaddy
-
I need help consolidating two WordPress setups that were created for the same site.
Originally, my web designer started building my website on WordPress.com, where I have an active Pro Plan.
However, at that time, I didn’t have external hosting (and thought I needed it), so we couldn’t install some plugins like Elementor. To fix that, I purchased hosting from GoDaddy, connected my website domain there, and accidentally created a new WordPress installation through GoDaddy (which runs on WordPress.org).
Now, I’ve realized I already had a paid Pro subscription on WordPress.com, and I’d like to merge everything so I only have one WordPress account — the Pro one — connected to my GoDaddy hosting and domain.
Ideally, I want to:
1. Keep my WordPress.com Pro Plan and account (this one).
2. Use my GoDaddy hosting to run the site (since that’s where my domain and files are now).
3. Ensure my designer continues working on the same version (with Elementor access and all the plugins).Please help me connect my paid WordPress.com Pro account to my GoDaddy-hosted website WordPress installation or let me know the best way to transfer the Pro benefits to the self-hosted version.
