Transferring my wordpress.com followers to my self hosted wordpress.org site
-
In the directions on transferring followers from wordpress.com site (bornattwentyfive.wordpress.com) to my self hosted wordpress site (TheUrbanRealist.com) it says to contact wordpress once I did everything listed. When I clicked the contact WordPress link- it took me back to the help page. Is there a direct email address for wordpress where I can contact them about transferring my WordPress.com site followers to my self hosted site?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Provided you have installed and activated the JetPack plugin http://jetpack.me on your WordPress.org install, and you post the relevant URL(s) into a forum thread, Staff will do the transfer of both subscribers and stats for you. Do that now please as I have tagged this thread for their attention.

Thanks timethief! My wordpress.com blog is http://bornattwentyfive.wordpress.com/ and my self hosted site is http://theurbanrealist.com. My jetpack is connected on my self hosted site. I My Hi Jackie, when I tried the migration tool it didn’t work. When I get to the “Move Followers From A WordPress.com Blog” it’s blank- my wordpress.com blog isn’t listed. Is there another way to transfer it? Are you able to do it from your end?

Thanks Kardotim!
How do I show it on the site and where do I find it? When I look at my blog subscriptions widget it still says only 5 subscribers.
Thank you!

WP.com Subscribers: 359
EMail Subscribers: 7
