  I started a blog with a wordpress.com address. However, I would like to change my blog address/domain. Is this possible?
  I did add an additional domain to my profile. Apparently this is the address people will see when I comment on their blog. Is it possible to make this my main address?

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

  Hi there,

  You can change your free address at any time, yes. Go to My Site ->Domains and click on the free address. You should see a Change Address option there:

  Change a Blog Address

  You can also add a custom domain to your site if you prefer. That is a paid upgrade, and is included in all our plans.

  Domains

  I did add an additional domain to my profile.

  I only see one site in your account, https://dsbubbleofbooks.wordpress.com/

  If you added it in the Website field in your profile at wordpress.com/me, adding something there ONLY determines where your username links to. If you add a domain that that doesn’t actually exist, your username will link to an error page. You need to first create the address you want, and then add it in your profile.
