  My blog address (or domain? I can’t seem to understand the differense!) is vfagerland.com, and I would like to change it to dumåikkesove.com without deleting any content or changing to an other host.
  Is that possible?

  Kind regards,
  Vilde

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  This is the domain URL http://vfagerland.com/ that you are domain mapping from your .wordpress.com blog at http://vfagerland.wordpress.com/ to.

  You can always add a new custom domain to vfagerland.wordpress.com here:

  https://vfagerland.wordpress.com/wp-admin/paid-upgrades.php?page=domains

  Register a New Domain

  For more information about the differences between domain registration, hosting, and mapping, please see our page All About Domains:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/all-about-domains/

  Also, if you no longer require it, I’d be happy to cancel vfagerland.com for you.

  Before I proceed, there are a few points I need to cover.

  If we cancel your domain, it can take up to several weeks for our domain registrar to release the domain, and we can’t guarantee that your domain will be available to you again, once canceled.

  If you want to keep using your domain, but you don’t want to use WordPress.com anymore, you don’t have to cancel it. Instead, you can move the domain to another site, using the Domain Administration tool under Store > Domains, at the bottom of the page.

  For more information on using the domain elsewhere, please see:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/domain-management/

  Once you confirm how you’d like to proceed, I will get started processing your transaction.

  Thank you! This sorted out some questions I had!
  I think I will wait a little with changing and deleting, but now I know more about it and how to do so! Thanks!
