  I want to change my domain name and use the transfer option. Will the posts under the old domain name still be visible on the new domain aimed site?

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

  Hi @shoutsandyells, I’m not sure what you mean by the transfer option. Can you let us know what you have in mind?

  Also, you can change the domain. If you do that by adding a custom domain, all old links will redirect to the new one:
  https://wordpress.com/domain

  If you change the free address to another free address (you would use these steps), your posts will still be there. However, any links to the old posts will not automatically be redirected to the new one.
