  I have a live wp.org site
  69.195.124.80/~delindab

  that I have been building while still keeping my original, http://delindablog.wordpress.com/ site going out to my readers.

  I am ready to make the temp site my new permanent site– how do I do this ?

  After I do this within a week or so I will also move my website delindalayne.com to this new wp.org site

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

  I can help you move over your followers and subscribers. However, you want it to be the LAST thing you do. You want your new site set up completely, especially the URL. If we transfer subscribers to 69.195.124.80/~delindab, you will lose them all when you change the URL to your permanent one.

  Thanks for answer. I have the 69,, now placed at delindalayne-blog.com, but will ultimately have everything set at my delindalayne.com address., as soon as I move it. Should I wait until then to move the subscribers, etc?

  In the meantime, do I sent posts from both the .com and the org?

  thanks for your help

  I would wait until everything was exactly where it is supposed to be before I moved subscribers.

  And yes, this may mean you want to keep posting both places until you are finished getting everything settled.
