  I am making a blog for my business and unfortunately, my name is appearing as the author instead of the company’s. Is there anything I can do to CHANGE the Blog Administrator???

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

  Hi there,

  The name that appears as the author will be the WordPress.com account that you use to create each blog post or page. To change the author, first you need to make sure that your company has a WordPress.com account.

  You can sign up for a new account without creating an extra blog by logging out of your current account and going to this link:

  https://signup.wordpress.com/signup/?user=1

  Then, you have a couple options:

  1. You can add the company’s WordPress.com account as an administrator on the blog: Invite People to Contribute to Your Blog

  2. You can completely transfer ownership of the blog to the company’s WordPress.com account: Transferring Your Blog to Another User or Account

  Please let me know if you have any questions about that!
