  Hi wordpress,
  I would like to transfer my blog to wordpress.org but keeping the domain, content and traffic (followers, likes, shares..) as is.
  How do I do that? I have subscribed to bluehost, but what should I do now in order to make my current domain (idolanuel.com) stay under their host with wordpress.org?

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

  One more question,
  Can I access wordpress.com ‘reader’ as a wordpress.org user?

  Please don’t do anything (customer service) , just tell me if it is possible to transfer my blog to wordpress.org without losing all my followers?

  If it is not possible, what happens if I use the wordpress.com redirect upgrade and redirects wordpress.idolanuel.com (which is on wordpress.com) to idolanuel.com (which will be on wordpress.org)? Will I than be able to use to reader as a wordpress.com user, so that if I follow or like blogs in there and they want to visit me back, they are redirected to my wordpress.org website?
