Transferring Domain

    Hello. I am currently using wordpress.org free hosting for my blog. I have several years worth of posts and am now wanting to take it to the next step and start earning an income with my blog. I bought my domain name through ehost as well as a self-host package but then as I was trying to figure out how to merge the two, I learned that they only work with wordpress.org. This is all very new to me so I feel really lost in getting started with this. I now own my domain name but I have no idea what to do with it now or where I can go that I will be able to merge my wordpress.com site with a self-hosting site. I would prefer to work with a self hosting site with great reviews and ease of use since I am new to all of this. Thanks in advance for your advice.

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

    This guide will step you through the process of moving your site to a self-hosted WordPress.org instance:

    As we only support sites hosted here at WordPress.com, all issues with the new site – including the importing of the file – must be taken to the WordPress.org support community:
