    Yes, I knew about that plugin, but will it keep track seemlessly from wp.com to my host?

    No, probably not. But then there’s probably no way to do that anyway, that plugin will simply let your stats continue to be on WordPress.com.

    Geez, I was hoping to continue from where I left. You see I display the number of visitors so this means I will go from 45,000 to 0 overnight ??

    Nobody knows a trick to make that work ?

    I see in the source that my blog has the GA ID, can’t I continue using this?

    <script type="text/javascript">
    var wpcomPageTracker = _gat._getTracker("UA-xxxxx-x");
    wpcomPageTracker._setDomainName("wordpress.com");
    wpcomPageTracker._initData();
    wpcomPageTracker._trackPageview();
    </script>

    No, you can’t. It really does not work that way, and attempting to make it work will likely annoy the wordpress.com people who will then proceed to ban you.

    Don’t worry about it. Your stats will go up immediately because you’ll be redirecting the visitors to the new site now, right?
