Transfer my wordpress website to a domain I own already

We already pay for a hosting service and would like to keep them and just want the format we created using wordpress to be on that page.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi @gwengineers!
This is absolutely possible. You can follow the instructions at the following link to export your content to a self-hosted WordPress install on your other hosting service:

Have a great day!
