  Hello Support,

  I have moved my wordpress.com site digitaloskar.wordpress.com to a new self-hosted site http://www.digitaloskarphotography.co.uk installed jetpack and connected to wordpress.com.

  I would like to have my followers (not content) moved to the new site please. I couldn’t find anything to tell me how to contact you other than posting here.

  Thanks very much
  Oskar

  Hello, I am also in the process of setting up my new self hosted blog , and I’m trying find a way to move my subscribers from sensorysmartparent.wordpress.com to http://www.sensorysmartparent.com/blog.

  Is it possible to keep those subscribers, and move them to my new blog as well?
  Thank you!

  Hi – I have the same issue. Would you mind terribly transferring mine as well? The WordPress is http://thegaudyblog.wordpress.com and the self-hosted address is http://www.thegaudyblog.com. I have installed Jetpack.

  Thank you so much.

  Thanks macmanx. One question. On my wordpress.com site, I had 160ish subscribers, but only 44 have transferred. Is that normal?

  Only email subscribers can be transfered.

  Can email subscribers only be moved to self-hosted sites or can they also be transferred to another wordpress.com site?

  Hi,

  I have just moved my WordPress blog to a WordPress.org site and would like my followers transferred. Can this please be done. I have a total of 37 followers. Will they all get moved?

  Here are the details:

  blog: http://www.roadiswheretheheartis.wordpress.com
  new site: http://www.roadiswheretheheartis.com

  This is hosted via Bluehost and I have activated Jetpack.

  Thanks a lot.

  Hi, It’s me again.

  I am having trouble with the WordPress website. My home page has suddenly gone blank and the site is not letting me import content again from my blog.

  Can anyone help me with this? Is this a BlueHost issue or WordPress? I was trying to change themes when this happened.

  Site name- http://www.roadiswheretheheartis.com

  please hold off moving subscribers till this issue is resolved.

  Thanks a lot.
  Priyanka

  Is this a BlueHost issue or WordPress?

  It’s a wordpress.org issue. You need to got to this page http://wordpress.org/support and register a username account there on the top right hand corner of the page.
