  Hi there,

  What is the site URL that you are trying to change to?

  You can change your blog address by going to My Blogs, and clicking the Change Blog Address link that appears when you hover over the address you want to change:

  https://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/

  Note that you have the option to choose your user name to match the new blog address. If you choose this option, you will not be able to revert back to the original username, and it can affect profile URLs for other services such as Gravatar or IntenseDebate.

  For detailed instructions/information on changing your blog name, please visit our support document:

  Let me know if you have any questions.

  Thanks!
