Hi all! Tomorrow is a big day– I’ll be making the switch from WordPress.com to WordPress.org. It’s a move I’ve been thinking about for a while and I feel like the time is right. I’m excited to have a little more flexibility and control over my site.
If you are following my blog, through WordPress.com or email, you should still get your usual updates. Just in case, you might want to click the link on the right to get email updates on the new platform. I definitely want to stay in touch with all of you!
To my WordPress.com followers/friends, I’ll continue to check my reader regularly to keep up with your posts 🙂 I’ve so enjoyed getting to know you gals!
Hopefully there won’t be any hiccups in the process, but please be patient if anything looks a little wonky tomorrow– I’ll be on it!
Thank you for reading and for your support– this has been an amazing journey so far and I’m just getting started!!

I made the switch a couple months ago myself. Good luck with your move. I look forward to seeing your new site.

Thanks! I probably could have pulled it off on my own, but I’ve gone with the guided transfer just to be on the safe side. Let me know if you have any tips! 🙂

Out of curiosity, why did you decide to switch?

You have a lot more control over your site when it is self-hosted. You can be a “business.” I will say that WordPress.com was wonderful starting out to get the hang of things and to connect with other bloggers!

Thanks! I won’t be over-hauling the site right away, so at first it will be much the same. Though I do hope to tweak my design!
