  Hello,

  I’ve purchased hosting with Laughing Squid (one of the recommended hosts on WordPress.org) and would like to move our WordPress.com blog using the Guided Transfer program.

  My issue: Laughing Squid is not referenced as one of the “partner hosts” I can choose from.

  May I still use the Guided Transfer upgrade option?

  Thanks,

  Steffanie

  Unfortunately, you’ll need to have purchased hosting with one of our recommended providers at http://get.wp.com/hosting/ to use a Guided Transfer.

  However, you can still transfer the contacts of your blog following this guide: http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#moving-to-wordpress-org
