  I want to change my username, and update my blog address to match it (from kimberleyturner to my new name, kimberleyjohnson). However, I don’t want all my posts to be deleted, and ideally want people who have my previous one to be able to find me, and am wondering if I do that, if it pretty much starts fresh ,or if everything will be transffered over to the new wordpress? thank you

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

  Hi katurner201,

  You’ll be able to rename your blog by following the instructions on this support article:
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/changing-blog-address/

  Your posts will be transferred, but you’ll have to purchase the Site Redirect upgrade if you want people to be able to find you via your old address.

  Please do feel free to ask if you have any more questions about the process.
