Hello, I have a free wordpress blog http:// xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx . wordpress.com from last 2 year and it has very good amount of traffic and SERP. but now i want to make it paid blog or you can say that i want to purchase it. Can any one help me that how can i do it kindly tell me step wise complete process. Waiting. Thanks in advance.
If you want to purchase it you may have to transfer it by buying a domain, and setting up a hosting account. If you are getting traffic you should have an offer or two in a prominent position, so that you can get commission on sales of what you are offering. What you should do is keep it as it is and link back to a new site you create, where you have the flexibility to do anything you want.
Using Domain mapping up-gradation you can change you example.wordpress.com to example.com blog. But this is a Paid up-gradation. ( but there is some Trams and condition of wordpress.com that will not allow you to make it a paid blog ) To know more about this read the knowledge-base article but wordpress is not currently accepting incoming domain transfers.
You can't put monetization on a Wordpress.com blog Wordpress won't let you use a blog for SEO purposes, IOW, you can't link to your sales page on another site, or have affiliate links. No reason to do this through WP, especially if there are Terms. Ding, Ding, Ding. This is the only right answer. You need to register your own domain, secure a hosting account, install the latest version of Wordpress, Install a theme, and then use the export function on your old blog to back up your posts...then use the import function on your new blog to import them in. No, you will not retain your PR No you will not retain your incoming links Yes, you can do what ever you want with it, monetize it anyway you please and the only T.O.S. you have to abide by are those of your hosting company and what ever program you decide to monetize with..and most of those are mainly about Decency,and Copywrite.
