Can I merge 2 WordPress.com accounts?
-
Hi, I have 2 accounts on WordPress.com and I would like to merge both accounts if possible. I have the username KrissyEverett and GuiltFreeFitMom. I have all my content on GuiltFreeFitMom but I would like to change my username and website name to KrissyEverett. I hope this makes sense. I read in the support docs that a username can’t be used again, but is there a way to delete the KrissyEverett account entirely so I can use the username to replace my GuiltFreeFitMom account? I do not want to lose all of my content I have in place in the GuiltFreeFitMom account.
Thank you in advance!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

You cannot merge or delete accounts, but you can transfer blog control.
Before I get into specifics, please give us exactly the URLs of each blog, starting with http.

http://www.krissyeverett.wordpress.com is the account I am not using but the username I want to use
http://www.guiltfreefitmom.com is the blog that has all my content on it but I want to stop using the name Guilt Free Fit Mom

Well, krissyeverett IS your username already.
Do you mean you wish to stop using the domain name guiltfreefitmom.com and put all the content on the URL http://krissyeverett.wordpress.com/ ?
That is easily done. On the first blog, go to the dashboard Tools page and click to create an Export file. Then on the Tools page of the other dashboard, click to Import it. Check to make sure all contents including images came over. Then on the first blog, go to the Store page and buy the Redirect Upgrade. Point it to the new blog.
Ensure the domain name and mapping renewals are NOT on auto-renew and they will gradually expire.
