I am researching moving my blog from wordpress.com to wordpress.org version and am wondering if I can move my email subscribers and wordpress followers, and how do I do this?

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

Please provide both the .wordpress.com blog URL and the new domain URL. Then install and activate the JetPack plugin and Staff will be able to transfer your subscribers for you. I tagged this thread for Staff. Please subscribe to it so you are notified when they respond.

Will do. I have to move over all my posts and figure out an image and then I’ll post my old blog/new blog. Thanks so much!

Have you activated Jetpack yet? Do so and then staff can move your subscribers. It requires a bit of configuration. They can also apparently move your old stats too, if you want.

Can you move my stats? I can’t see my followers, where do I go to see them. I know on wordpress.com you go through stats to see your followers.

At this time, we cannot transfer stats, but you can see your follower count via Jetpack -> Site Stats in your WordPress.org blog’s Dashboard.

Looks like raincoaster, comment above, says you can move old stats? Is this not the case?

No, we’d also need to move those for you. What are the URLs of the two blogs?
