Domain
-
My new WordPress site is under a url that is incorrect, but I can’t find anywhere that will allow me to change it to the correct one. My url and domain should be rybluesville.net, but instead it is listed as reggiescottyoung.com with a url of reggiescottyoung-com. The new website is useless until I can correct this problem. I don’t speak tech jargon, so if there is a simple fix please help.
Thanks!

By the way, the rycitysongs was an old and discontinued site that I used for a class this year. The current one is through Hostinger. Would like to separate the rycitysongs from my current one.

Hi there, @rycitysongs!
Looking over your WordPress.com account, I am seeing you do not yet have any WordPress.com sites created.
Are you hoping to create a WordPress.com site using the domain rybluesville.net? If so, I would be happy to help you with that. Looking at
rybluesville.net, I found that this domain is registered with another provider. Do you own this domain? If so, you will be able to connect this domain to a WordPress.com site.If you are interested in creating a WordPress.com site using this domain, you will want to start by creating a site at https://wordpress.com/start
You will be asked to select your domain name when creating your site and then asked to select a plan for your site. Since you want to use a custom domain on your site, you will want to select a paid plan. I recommend the Premium plan because this plan unlocks several site customization options and also gives you access to live chat support. If you tell me a bit more about your site, I would be happy to recommend the best plan for what you have in mind! For example, what is the primary purpose of your site? What specific features or functionalities would you like to have on your website?
You can purchase a plan for your site at My Site → Upgrades → Plans
Once you do that, you will be able to connect your domain registered elsewhere to your WordPress.com site. Here is how to do so:
If you already own a domain name with another provider, you can use that domain with your WordPress.com site. Once you complete the steps below, instead of your site address being something like yourgroovysite.wordpress.com, your site’s address will be something like yourgroovydomain.com. Follow the steps in this guide to keep your domain registered with your current provider and use it to showI know that was a lot! Just know we are here to answer any questions you have about this process. Let me know if you have any questions!
