Many people start up a blog with WordPress.com and then down the road discover they need additional functionality which is not available with the .com platform.  Moving their site to a self hosted .org site can be pretty intimidating and painful if you don’t know what you are doing.

Actually – it can be pretty painful if you do know what you are doing.

WordPress will now move your content from .com to .org for $99 with their Guided Transfer service. And it comes with 2 weeks of follow up support once you are active on your new site.  That’s pretty nifty.

It just might be the thing you need to take your blog to the next level.  Disclaimer: I have not used this service and have no first-hand knowledge of it.
