# Redirection keeps throwing a 200 code

 * Hello.
    I just recently moved my old wordpress.com site to my new .com site. 
   I’ve activated the Redirection plugin, but it’s not working. I’ve read various
   how-to articles, including the ones for my new host, Hostinger, and I’m doing
   everything right (as far as I know), but none of my old links are redirecting.
   I keep getting this message:
 * Expected: 301 to [https://amberdaulton.com](https://amberdaulton.com)
    Found:
   200 Agent: Not using Redirection
 * For the record, I haven’t moved my old domain to my new domain (the option that
   costs $13.99), and I’m not going to. I get so few views on my old domain that
   it’s not worth it to me to pay anything to move it. I don’t know if that has 
   anything to do with the Redirection plugin not working, but I thought I should
   mention it.
    Thanks for any help! Amber

 * Have you created the redirect on wordpress.com?

 * Hi, John.
    No, I can’t create or install the redirection plugin on wordpress.
   com because wordpress.com is a free site and plugins are disabled. I’ve installed
   it on my new self-hosted .com site.

 * Any redirect (from Redirection or otherwise) must take place from the source 
   domain. You cannot create a redirect on a separate domain and have it affect 
   another domain.

 * Then what am I suppose to do? wordpress.com won’t allow plugins.
    Help! Thanks!

 * You will need to speak to wordpress.com and see what the options are.
