  I need to change ownership of a blog to someone else. Is it possible to do this or does the person have to create a new blog and copy everything over?

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

  Hi!

  Take a look at this post – it explains the process of handing your blog over in more detail: https://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#transferring-your-blog-to-another-wordpress-com-user-or-account

  This option can be found under under My Sites > WP Admin > My Blogs. Just hover over the blog you’d like to transfer, and the ‘Transfer Blog’ option should appear. From there, just follow the instructions mentioned in the post above.

  Be sure to thoroughly read the email that’ll be sent to you once you’ve been through the process, ensure that it’s being transferred to a user you trust, and you should be all set. Hope that’s helpful :)
