Will the old WordPress.Com links still work?

Question

Hi

I have an established blog on WordPress (whatwaydsays.wordpress.com). I recently purchased the domain whatwaydsays.co.za from Afrihost and I would like to transfer the site. However, will my old links in social media posts, etc still remain active after the transfer?

Will the old url's automatically direct to the new ones or will I have to go back and fix all the broken links on my social media posts?

Thanks in advance

Waheeda
