  Greetings,

  I have a basic paid web page ($26 for name and email), but I’ve changed my writing focus and like to change the name completely. I want AndiMHarris.com to be RenaManse.com, with email to match, but so far I can’t figure out how to do a complete switch. Everything still carries the Andi… tag.

  It looks like I need to create an entirely new page and pay for that one while the old still exists. Is that right? Or, is there a way to change Andi to Rena before this account expires and simply renew and continue from there?

  Thanks for any advice,
  amh

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

  What, exactly, do you mean by that? Just buy the new domain name, set that as primary, and away you go.

  To answer your question, my email is owned by andimharris.com. It’s (email visible only to moderators and staff), so I can’t change the name because it will read (email visible only to moderators and staff).

  I’d like to know if there is a way to switch names by taking over the current domain.

  My account doesn’t expire until June. I need to know if I am to just wait it out and then purchase a new one, or if I can switch, like taking over a lease.
