Transferring WordPress purchased site to my Hosting service
-
I purchased my domain name through wordpress.com thinking I would use the free site then changed my mind and wanted more flexibility. I switched to the self-hosted wordpress and purchased hosting services via Hostgator. The domain name had already been purchased for 1 year through WordPress.com (which is pretty uncommon to do actually) so we just had that domain name pointed to the hostgator account for the past year. Now our domain name expired, the site went down. I need help to transfer the domain name to our to our hosting account, Hostgator so I can manage it all on a single panel.

You have to try and reclaim the expired domain first. You cannot transfer an expired domain. https://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/domain-expiration/
