  Hi Dotty,

  Ownership of the site aldarandthegolem.com and the domain can be transferred to your dottyanderson account. Then if your aldarauthor account is no longer needed, it can be deactivated — which means you would only need to login as dottyanderson to manage both sites and their purchases.

  Does this sound like a good solution?

  Hi Dotty,

  Great, these steps will guide you through the process of making the change:

  1. Transfer ownership of the domain aldarandthegolem.com from aldarauthor to dottyanderson:

  https://en.support.wordpress.com/move-domain/transfer-a-domain-to-another-wordpress-com-account/

  Once the domain has been transferred to the account you wish to keep, the site itself can be transferred too.

  2. Transfer the ownership of aldarandthegolem.wordpress.com from aldarauthor to dottyanderson:

  https://en.support.wordpress.com/transferring-a-site-to-another-wordpress-com-account/

  Let me know when you’ve done so and we can look at deactivating your aldarauthor account.

  Hi Gemma, It took me a little bit of playing around, but I am happy to report that all is now as I wish it to be!
  Thank you very much.

  Hi Dotty,

  Yes, I can see aldarandthegolem.wordpress.com is now owned by your dottyanderson account. The custom domain for that site (aldarandthegolem.com) is still owned by your other account so you may also want to transfer that over in order to keep everything in the same place.

  Once you’ve done so, the aldarauthor account can be deactivated.

  Come back to me if you have any questions.

  It gets a little complicated, and I'm somewhat concerned that I will make an error and get into more problems than it is worth. The domain http://www.aldarandthegolem.com comes up for renewal in June. My plan is not to renew the domain, but keep https://aldarandthegolem.wordpress.com.I will link my dottyanderson.com blog to the aldar wordpress page. Does that sound reasonable?

  If you don’t wish to continue using aldarandthegolem.com, the domain can be cancelled from the Manage Purchases page in your aldarauthor account.

  Other than that, both sites and the other domain are now owned by your dottyanderson account :)

  OK. I will probably keep the domain until it runs out in June.Thanks again for all your help.
