    I need some opinions please.

    My site is hosted by wordpress.com (can't monitize it as i'd like)

    The site I have now is LoanModSource.org (.org lends to a trust factor?) 2 months old BTW

    I just purchased LoanModSource.com

    I'm getting ready to self-host my site on a dedicated server at BlueHost.

    The problem is the .ORG has over 400 banklinks with more to come.

    Would you transfer the .ORG to the BlueHost
    or would you start from scratch with the .COM

    I could self-host the .COM and forward the .ORG to it?

    Any advice would help.

    Thanks

    yes ,you could permanently redirect the traffic from the .org domain to the .com one.
    I think this is the best solution ,because if you will develope both websites you could have problems with google for double content .

    If you have good traffic on your .org domain, I would stay with it.

    BTW, does Bluehost offer dedicated servers as well?

    Wordpress.com offers hosting?
    Or are you using wordpress platform?
    either ways there are plugins to put ads on a wordpress.

    Move the website to .com, set up a permanent 301 redirect to the .com version and inform google about the change of address in Google Webmasters tools.
