I have been blogging with WP.com for nearly a year now and have a tonof content and comments there. I now have a WP.org hosted account how can I move a copy of all the content and comments over there?

Thanks

I just did this recently, and I am not too techhie, but I can tell you what I did.

I registered my domain name with a 3rd party hosting company (There are some recommended hosting companies listed on wordpress.org) Then install the latest WP on your new server/host. Export your WP.COM files and import that file to your WP.ORG site.

There you go! It is super easy.
