  I have my own domain name (Dazzling-ideas.co.uk) built on the WordPress.org platform) and looking at the possibility of moving my free WordPress.com account to my hosted website. I would be grateful if you could let me know if this is possible, what it would entail and whether there is any cost.

  Yours

  You can export your content from your WordPress.com site and import it into a new self-hosted site at any time. If you prefer, you can purchase our Guided Transfer upgrade, and one of our staff members will do the migration for you. Note that for Guided Transfer, you will need to use one of our approved hosting providers.

  For more instructions on how to do an export, pleasee see the following support document:
