  How do I change my wordpress domain name. I just want to change it from snaax123.wordpress.com to publicjournalism.wordpress.com and I want the new domain name to take me to the blog I have already created under snaax123.

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

  Since the new name exists ( publicjournalism.wordpress.com) you can’t change the old name (snaax123.wordpress.com) to it

  Have you transferred all the content from the old site to the new site? Or do you want to transfer the content?

  Transfer the content by Exporting from one to another

  Then buy the site Redirect for $13.-/year and that will send all the traffic from the old site to the new site and train the search engines that you have moved
