  Hey guys,

  I want to change the url of my blog (e.g. from old.wordpress.com to new.wordpress.com) but I don’t want to lose the visitors that my blog gets. What is the step-by-step process to change the url and also set up a site redirect? Which process do I have to do first?

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

  You can change a site address ending in wordpress.com by following the steps here:

  Please note that the final step in changing your site address allows you to keep or discard the old address. If you are changing your site address so that you can use the address for a new site, please be sure to keep the old address.

  The ability of your followers to reach your site will not be affected.
