  Hi there,

  Are you referring to the blog address roadsidia.wordpress.com? If so, you can change that following the instructions here:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/changing-blog-address/

  Please read the instructions carefully. One method helps you setup a new blog address and keep roadsidia.wordpress.com. The other deletes roadsidia.wordpress.com permanently.

  If you’re referring to a custom domain (domain.com), I’m not seeing one on your account. You can register one following the instructions here:

  Thanks Jeremy. Of course, I have now made a bigger mess. I thought old traffic and google searches would be re-directed to this new blog-name, but google searches under my name only send people to a WP page that informs them that “roadsidia.wordpress.com is no longer available.” How do I re-direct things?
