  Hi there,

  Do you already own the other domain you would like to use?

  No. Trying to change this one, the one I currently just set up and would like to see if this one is available?

  I believe you can do this through your WP admin.

  Go to: https://wordpress.com/home/

  Click: Settings > General > Scroll down to “Site Settings” and there you can click change your site address > On the next page, next to your current site address, with the three dots, you can click: Change site address.

  After that you will see this link: “Did you want to add a custom domain instead?”

  Click that.

  In the following steps, you can search for available Domains, and you can also choose domain endings if desired.

  Hope this helps!
