  I m moving to a self hosted wordpress site but the instructions given by both wordpress and the host (groundsite, which I already regret) are very confusing, I already have a host (groundsite,), I exported my content, imported it, purchased a new theme, but when I go to jetpack nothing happens… I think there are many steps misssing in the instructions. Also, shall I open a wordpress.org account? do I need to move from wordpress.com to org? how? thanks

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

  Have you been following this guide?
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-to-a-self-hosted-wordpress-site/

  Also, shall I open a wordpress.org account? do I need to move from wordpress.com to org?

  Yes.

  WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG account, then click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, https://wordpress.org/support/register.php so you can post to the support forums there.

  WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page
