  Hey there,

  Happy to help you with this.

  To transfer the site from Siteground to WordPress.com, we have this plugin here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpcom-migration/ to help with making the process as easy as possible.

  It’s an automatic process, which means it can run on it’s own.

  To check, are you looking to move the site onto the molitmag.wordpress.com installation – if yes, in order to move a site from Siteground to WordPress.com, the business plan would be required here at WordPress.

  Once the migration is complete, it’s then possible to connect the domain to WordPress.com, as per these steps here: https://wordpress.com/support/domains/connect-existing-domain/

  I hope this helps so far, and please let us know if we can be of assistance with the migration.
