  Greetings,

  I purchased a ‘.com’ domain name from wordpress — facesofphiladelphiashomeless.com

  I would like to keep the blog as is, but change the domain name.

  Is this possible? If so, how?

  If I need to purchase a new ‘.com’ domain name that is fine, but I would like to keep the blog as is, and simply change the domain name.

  Much appreciation,

  Erik

  It isn’t possible to change the domain name, but you can purchase another domain name and make that your primary domain. This *won’t* change your blog in any way, it just changes the domain name.

  You can purchase a domain name directly from your blog’s Upgrades > Domains. After you make the purchase, go to the Settings > Domains page, select the radio button next to the domain you want as the primary one, and click the Update Primary Domain button.
