I have been stressing the move to Bluehost for about the past month.  I have been digging up everywhere looking for the answer.  Cheryl has started playing with WP.org and offer some advice...ALL THE ADVICE HAS BEEN VERY HELPFUL, but it didn't answer my the specific question I had in my mind...Ya See, here was the situation...I spent soo much time on my wordpress.com blog and google was loving it, Everyone was reading my blog via readers, and accessing it through my domain http://focusonfrederick.com/  My domain was a part of Wordpress.com.  My mind was racing...how do I get this over to Bluehost without disrupting service and risk losing my google juice.  I first ran a couple test blogs on Bluehost, but I never took that last step...make the change to the domain!!!  Well, it turns out...that is the first thing you do and the rest falls into place...whew!!!  So here you go:

1. On your wordpress blog (you can move others here too) go to manage
1. Click export 
2. Save this xml file on your hard drive (remember where you put it)
2. Move Nameserver to bluehost on your godaddy domain.  You can click either one to change it.
3. In cPanel goto manage domains 
1. Create Addon Domain
2. This is your domain with godaddy
3. Get EPP code from godaddy 
4. Paste it in the space & hit verify.
5. Close that new window if you aren't transferring the domain
6. Scroll to the bottom click accept or ok.  (I forget what this says because at the time I created a ticket for my "problem" The problem was me.)
7. Verify that your domain was just created as an addon domain.
4. Now go to your cPanel and find Fantastico De Luxe 
1. You will see Wordpress on the left hand side
2. Click New Installation
3. Pick your domain
4. Follow the instructions for creating your account
5. Now you are set
5. Open a new browser window and type in your URL.  You should see a generic looking blog.
6. On the bottom right you will see the admin link.
1. Click on it and sign in with the name you used in the set up with Fantastico
2. Bookmark this page.  This is how you will go back into it.
3. It looks just like your wordpress.com panel with some changes.
4. Click manage and then import this time
5. Browse for your file.  The one you saved in the 1st step. 
6. Wahlah... you have all of your post and comments
7. Now you have to set up your themes and widgets.  That will be a different post
8. All of your pictures will be links to your old blog...so don't delete your old blog until you transfer all of your pictures.  Otherwise leave it up.

The process was pretty painless (20/20 hindsight)  If you don't have an outside blog yet, I would suggest Wordpress.com as a place to start.   If you already have an outside blog, I suggest Bluehost.com as a place to host it.  There is a lot of bundled up software in there...I will have to figure it out and get back to you.  (like photo gallery software to create your own gallery website) See below for more information.
