  I want to transfer my blog from wordpress.com to wordpress.org. But I’m confused with one thing that if I transfer my blog from wp.com to wp.org what will happen to my blog stats and my followers?

  Hi @poorwavishwakarma,

  To help you with the transfer WordPress team has put together a support guide that you can find at the link down below:
  Moving to Self-Hosted WordPress

  Moving to a self-hosted WordPress.org site doesn’t mean you have to say goodbye to all the followers you’ve built up on your WordPress.com site. With the Jetpack plugin, you can migrate your subscribers to the new site with the click of a button. Read more on this at the link down below.
  https://move.wordpress.com/move-subscribers/

  As for the stats, you can also keep the stats as well with the help of Jetpack plugin but we do not have an automated tool for this as of now and you will need the help from Automattic’s Happiness Engineers in this regard.

  I am therefore tagging this post for their attention so that they can guide you further regarding the stats.

  Best,
  Sunil Chauhan

  Hi there,

  
  @mrsnlchauhan’s information is correct. Once you move your site you can contact us and we’ll move the followers and stats for you.
