  I realized that .org is best for me. I signed up on .com — if I cancel on .com, can I assume that I can still use the same email address for the .org version? Thanks in advance.

  Hi there!

  I don’t see any custom domain under your account, the address hankvirgona.wordpress.com can be only used on WordPress.com. If you had a custom domain, you’d be able to transfer it to the new registrar. Canceling a domain is never a good idea if you plan to keep using it.
