  WP.com: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

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

  Hey there, since the new site already exists, it’s probably easiest to go ahead and use our export/import tools.

  First, set the new site so it uses the same theme as the old one. Then, start here:
  https://wordpress.com/export/ and select the old site to export.

  Then go to https://wordpress.com/import/ and select the new site to import.

  You may need to make further adjustments to the theme / site settings, etc., but that will get you most of the way there.

  Also, if you need to change which account owns the site, we have a guide here:
