  Hello there!

  Are you referring to your website address insightonline797042752.wordpress.com?

  If so, you have a few options to change the address. You can register a new domain name, transfer an existing domain that you bought from another registrar, or map a domain that lives with another registrar.

  Registering a domain with WordPress.com is an easy process and I suggest this method if you don’t already own the domain you want to use.

  Please note that each paid plan comes with a free domain name credit for one year’s registration or one domain transfer (the free WordPress.com accounts do not have the option to use a custom domain).

  Domains

  After you have found the perfect domain name, you can change the primary domain (insightonline797042752.wordpress.com) by going to My Site → Domains and then selecting the domain you wish to set as the primary domain.
