    Hello! I have been wanting to change my blog’s url (muchlovefromnatalie.wordpress.com) as it has proven to be too long and confusing for people to remember. I was wondering if changing the URL would erase all my current content (blog posts)? Which in that case, I wouldn’t want to do… :(

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

    All of the content on the blog is going to stay just as is. It will not change. The only thing that will change is the blog address.

    When you set up the address change, you will be prompted to choose between keeping the old domain or deleting it. I suggest you keep it. Once a .wordpress.com domain is deleted it is gone forever. You can simply mark it as private (hiding it from the world) and use it as a test site to try out different WordPress.com features like widgets or new themes.
