Hello,

I’ve just moved my blog from – http://fundamentalalchemist.wordpress.com/
to the self-hosted –
http://www.thefundamentalalchemist.com/

If someone could help me transfer my stats and blog and email followers over to my new home I’d be very grateful.

Thank you!

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

Provided you have installed and activated the JetPack plugin http://jetpack.me on your WordPress.org install, and post the relevant URL(s) into this thread, Staff will do the transfer of both subscribers and stats for you. I tagged this thread for their attention.

Thank you very much!

I do have one more question. Before I moved my blog on WordPress.com said I had exactly 40 blog followers and 78 email followers (this was visible via the widget at the bottom of my old blog and seemed to increase naturally but I don’t know how reliable the figure was). Now that everything has been moved over I only have 38 blog followers and 4 email followers. Do you know why this is?

I moved this for you:

WP.com Subscribers: 38
EMail Subscribers: 2

The Follow Blog Widget includes Twitter and Facebook followers. These cannot be transferred because they are linked to your Twitter and Facebook account.

Thank you again! I figured it must be something like that.

All sorted.
