Moving from WordPress.com to WordPress

We have had a lot of positive feedback for our “
Redirecting a WordPress.com Blog” document, and a common issue is redirection not working due to the permalinks of the new blog not being set to the style used by WordPress.com.

This was first raised by Eric P and he helped out by writing his own execllent post on
redirecting a WordPress.com blog - thanks Eric.

With our PDF document on
moving a WordPress.com blog to your own self hosted blog proving popular, we have updated it to include a section on setting the permalinks of your new blog, so that all the necessary information is in the one place.

Thanks again to all the excellent feedback we have received.
