   I am very, very new with a WP blog (learning curve!), it is set on private with just a small amount of content. I do plan to monetize in the future and now see where there would be limitations. I have the Premium .com plan, and now see that it does not allow access to plug-ins and outside templates. I understand that SEO is very important for visibility and gaining followers which then shows affiliates that your blog is of interest, etc., and a plug-in assists with this, correct? ANYWAY….. I will probably use your assistance to migrate. But, one question: How will WP know to stop billing me for annual service and for me to pay them just the $13 annually for my domain name? Or should the domain name move also, if that is even possible? And, will my controls/dashboard be similar or the same? I have pulled my hair out a few times learning already! Thank you in advance for your response.

     Hi Lori,

     Once you have migrated your website and pointed your domain to your self-hosted WordPress.org website, you can then go to manage purchases page to make sure that auto-renewals are turned off. Contact WordPress.com support to make sure your are not rebilled. After that you can just wait for your subscription to expire.

     You can keep your domain on WordPress.com and pay them annual domain renewal fee. You can also move it to your new hosting provider.

     Self-hosted WordPress.org websites have a slightly different user interface but some parts of the admin area are similar to WordPress.com.

   Hello and thanks for the great article – it is very handy.

   I migrated my blog from a wordpress.com site to a wordpress.org site. I have moved my followers also and can see the old comments on my posts at my site.

   The one thing missing is the likes from my old site on my posts. Are they gone now from the content, only existing on the old site, or is it possible to transfer them across too?

   Cheers!!

   I transferred my WordPress.com to self-host on a different server. I thought for some reason that after the migration I would have my original set-up at WordPress.com and then my new set-up with new theme on the new server. What surprised me was that the WordPress.com site I had is now updated with my self-hosted site. What could have caused this and better yet, if I cancel or delete the WordPress.com membership will it affect my new site on the new server?

     Hey Ron,

     You can run the importer again. It is smart enough not to import content already imported. If it fails to fetch all your media, then you may need to import those files manually.

   Hi,

   I am trying to export my XML file from WordPress.com to create my own website without WordPress.

   But I have problems with the XML from WordPress.com and the SQL from WordPress.com (I already import the XML to get a SQL).

   Do you know if we can leave WordPress and use our DB, or if we have to create a new one and do Htaccess redirection?

          I did get a warning that I wouldn’t be able to use the domain again, but i thought it meant that I wouldn’t be able to create a new wordpress.com site with that name, not that I’d never be able to register it anywhere ever again.

    This is great. I’d like to utilize the setup service and transfer my wordpress.com site/blog to wordpress.org, (including bluehost hosting). I’d like to keep the same domain to maintain traffic levels.

    A few questions first:

    1. I have a premium theme from wordpress.com. Will that transfer? If not, can I repurchase the same theme for the new site? I checked and that theme is available for purchase (but ideally i’d like to keep it if I already paid for it under wordpress.com). Either way, does the setup service include helping me get the theme setup?

    2. I have lots of links within my site. They’re links from blog posts to other blog posts, links from blog posts to pages, etc.. Can all of those permalinks and subdomains maintain the same URLs so that all links throughout my site/blog continue to operate after the migration? Even on older posts that link to other old posts?

    3. How much downtime should I expect in the migration process? Can the old site still be operational while the new site is being set up? How does that work? Should I plan to do it over a weekend (when I have less traffic)? I am interested in keeping my same domain.

    Once I get these questions answered, i’m ready to move forward. Thanks for your time.

    If I won’t use the paid SiteRedirect from wordpress.com, will search ranking and traffic be affected tremendously after migrating? And if no redirect (just export into site.mydomain.com) will the old site.wordpress.com be gone?

      Hi Nur,

      Yes, initially it will affect search ranking and traffic. However, if you unpublish posts on your old WordPress.com website then your new website will start ranking for some of those terms. It may take a while for you to recover all your search rankings and traffic.

    I am trying to migrate my blog content from wordpress.com to my self-hosted wordpress.org site. I ran the export/import process (which I’ve done before without any trouble), but for some reason, the importer on my self-hosted site is only importing 6 of my 37 published posts. I looked through the XML file to see if perhaps it downloaded incomplete, but everything is there. The importer successfully added my pages, menus, tags, categories, and six of my published posts WITH their attached images. But i can’t figure out why it stops and doesn’t finish importing the rest of my content. Is there another way to get that information loaded into my site?

    Yanıtla

    • WPBeginner Support

      Hey Amber,

      Feel free to run importer again, it doesn’t import duplicate content. If that doesn’t work, then you can try generating a new XML file from WordPress.com. This time before running the export tool, send the posts you have imported to the trash. This way those posts will not be included in the new export file.

      Hope this helps.

      You will need to ask WordPress.com support to transfer them for you.

        If i just change the nameserver from WordPress.com to bluehost.com , then i will have the same domain and url at my wordpress.org blog? or i have to do also redirection from adress site with extra cost 13 euros.Because i started my blog through wordpress.com, paid the personal package and my domain so i have a domain and my blog, so i am wondering if i can use the same url on my wordpress.org so i can delete my account at wordpress.com and keep only the blog at wordpress.org with bluehost web hosting.

          You can transfer the domain to BlueHost and the domain will be the same, the redirection service is to make sure any links in the WordPress.com reader points to your site at the new location.

    Hi – I am totally new to this and have not really launched a blog yet other than to play around with writing a home page. I signed up with Bluehost and have a domain name through them. WordPress was automatically installed via Bluehost. However, I noticed that it is WordPress.com and having done some reading, I want WordPress.org as I want to be able to use Adsense, Amazon Affiliates etc etc. But it looks like from everything I’ve read that if you sign up via Bluehost, you should automatically get WordPress.org. Thoroughly confused. I’ve tried downloading wordpress.org on my iPad but it doesn’t work. Do I need to do it on a full laptop, mac or PC? And considering I don’t really have any content to move, is it complicated to get started?

    Yanıtla

    • WPBeginner Support

      Hi Joanna,

      The only reason your domain may still be pointing to WordPress.org if you previously used it on a WordPress.com website. In that case you will need to point your domain’s DNS settings to Bluehost servers.

    I recently started a blog on wordpress.com and didn’t do enough research (I was bit in a hurry to have it up and running). Searching for several help topics I’ve landed on this site couple of times already. Now I’ve seen this option. Has been 24 days since I bought a “Premium Plan” with WordPress, but afterwards I realized that I’m not able to install plugins. The basic HostGator plan allows to install plugins and do some extra configurations that wordpress.com do not allow? If yes, how much time take your “Free Blog Setup” service, can I still be reimbursed from the Premium plan I bought on WordPress.com? Thanks.

    So I ran into an issue where I created a wordpress.com first (which apparently is super common, go figure.)

    I discovered this immediately so I didn’t need to import anything.

    It would appear I’ve followed all the other steps, I added the domain to Bluehost, I setup a new webpage through Bluehost, I’ve set my wordpress.com page to private. And set the .com DNS to point to the Bluehost DNS.

    The problem is the domain URL still points to the .com default site that you get when you initially create a wordpress.com account. And I have not found a way to get it to work.

    Hi, thanks for all the great info you post and publish…I use it all the time!

    I’ve set up a new site in WP, have many pages, and I’d now like to move my .com posts over to it.

    I’ve set the front/home page set up as a static page…home page for the site. And my blogs to appear on a different page. I think I have that set up correctly.

    But looking at the export/import process, will WP know to put my blogs on the page I indicate as my blog page, rather than on the front/home page? I’d hate to go through the process only to discover that all my imported blogs were in the wrong place.

      On your .org website, login to the admin area and then go to Posts to see if all your posts have been imported. If they are then you probably need to setup your theme to display them.

    Hi – I transferred a wordpress.com blog to a wordpress.org blog back in 2016. At the time, I changed the domain name. Fast forward to now – I am in the middle of a server migration, and I’ve realized that I don’t have “access” to my domain name.

I cannot find any information on how to do so, and I would so so helpful for some advice.

    Hi! Your tutorial was great and super simple. I had no problem with the process but somehow not all my content was in the XML file? OR it was not imported? I have been trying to troubleshoot for hours now and cannot find any information to help I have tried exporting from both my wp-admin interface and the blog editing interface on wordpress.com. I got two different sized xml files which is strange. The first one was 729kb and the second one was in a zip file but when extracted was just one file of 1.1mb. I have tried importing them both multiple times to my new blue hosted wordpress.org interface, and only a small portion of my content is there…. like 2 of 8 blog posts, 1 of 25 pages, and 20 of 75 photos, no menus or theme or settings transferred.

      Try running the importer again, it is smart enough to avoid duplicates. To troubleshoot this issue, try exporting your data from WordPress.com and then open the export file in a plain text editor like notepad. See if your missing posts are inside the file. If they are not there, then please try exporting again.

        Hi!

        Thanks for the response. So, I tried importing about 10 times….and it would import like one more post or page sometimes, and a few more photos each time. But no matter how many times I do it again and again, not all the content is importing. I just checked the export file as you suggested, and I do see information in the file for blog posts and pages that are not showing after my import attempts…but I was not able to tell if the file indeed contains ALL my posts and pages. I also did try exporting multiple times from both the wp-admin interface (which gives me 729kb file) and the blog editing interface (which gives me a 1.1mb file)…. and I tried importing each file multiple times. I also tried exporting just blogs or just pages and then importing those smaller xml files individually to see if that would get all the content, and it still does not successfully import all the content Not sure what else to try. Any ideas? Thank you for the support!!

    I had no idea there were 2 different wordpress sites. I’ve been blogging at wordpress.com for years, thinking it was the only one.

    I’ve begun creating a website for a new business on wordpress.com and want it to be a membership site. After a bit of research (too little, apparently), I found that to do this, you must have the ability to add plugins, and the only way to that is to get the business plan, so that’s what I did. Now I’m seeing everywhere that I STILL can’t do it on wordpress.com.

    Have I just thrown away my $279?

    Hi, I’ve been using WordPress.com for my own blogsite. I recently purchased hosting from a web hosting company. I followed the steps on this page but when I access my domain that is connected to my wordpress site, it;s still showing the default wordpress.org site. Not sure what I did incorrectly.

      Hey Jeff,

      If you had a custom domain on WordPress.com, then you’d need to point that to your new host. If you are using a new domain, then you will need to import your content from WordPress.com. Please see the instructions above.

    Hi there! I’ve been using WordPress.com for about four years, but I’m not good with the terminology. I have a current web site on one domain, which is where I want to eventually have a combined web site/blog using Photocrati on WordPress.org. My current blog is on another domain (not a WordPress one) on WordPress.com. However… I would like to take advantage of the free 60 day trial with Photocrati and create the new site tucked behind my current web site – so something along the lines of realwebsite.uk.com/test_area – so I can get it how I want before going live. I did something like this creating a site for a charity a few years ago. I hope I can do the same with this. Could you give me brief instructions on what I should do please? I’ve already downloaded Photocrati, but I’m already stuck. Thank you!

    I am trying to hange the DNS server from my wordpress.com account to my new hosting service which is siteground (wordpress.org) and it is saying the DNS server cant be found? I asked siteground directly and they provided me with the DNS server addresses.

    Hi,

    thanks for the helpful article! I followed it step by step, however, when I tried to import the xml-file into my new blog, I got this message on the screen for part of the files:
    Failed to import “”: Invalid post type jetpack-portfolio

    What did I do wrong? Thanks für your help!

      Hi Carolin,

      It seems like you were using JetPack’s portfolio post type on your WordPress.com blog. Try installing free version of JetPack on your self-hosted WordPress.org blog. After that enable the portfolio module and then try to import your xml file.

      Once you have imported the content successfully, you can use any other portfolio plugin and convert jetpack-portfolio post type to any other post type in WordPress.

    It says that I need to install the JetPack plug in to migrate my existing subscribers to the new wordpress.org site. Can I install the free version of Jetpack to do this?

    I want to switch to WP.org. My website is… Will my theme stay the same if I transfer it?

      Hi Spenser,

      Many of the themes used by WordPress.com websites are also available for self-hosted WordPress.org sites. You’ll need to Google your theme name and you may be able to find it on WordPress.org as well.
