  Hi,
  I have moved from wordpress.com to wordpress.org.
  The website is the same (www.thesaffronlife.com)

  Could someone help me move my subscribers and wordpress followers over?
  I posted somewhere else, but I know i need to start a new thread so I am doing that here.
  Thanks in advance!!
  Shirin

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

  Thank you! And wordpress followers that I had on the previous site… I know I can’t transfer them over right? Is there anyway to update just that group to let them know they need to sign up on my blog? Kind of sad to lose them I guess..

  Sure, if you leave a “We’ve Moved” post on that site, they’ll still get it.

  Oh ok.. I will do that. thanks! The signup box I have right now on my website, is that fine or do I use jetpack? or feedburner? what are benefits of those?

  Thanks again, so helpful.

  The subscription box in your sidebar on http://thesaffronlife.com/ is from Jetpack, so that should be fine. It allows folks to subscribe to your blog via email.
