how can i change from .co to .com?

  • Unknown's avatar

    hello there. I inadvertently chose .co (thinking it would be .co.uk) how can I change it to the more regular sounding .com? I am pretty much a technophobe and am also having great trouble setting up my blog page. I have managed to make a post, although I am not really sure how I did it. I cant get the info I put in profile to appear in the ‘about’ section. hope you can help me get going! thanks, sue

    At any time, you can add a new custom domain to your site here:

    https://homebodyrambles.wordpress.com/wp-admin/paid-upgrades.php?page=domains

    Register a New Domain

    Also, if you no longer need it, I can cancel homebodyrambles.co and refund the associated charge.

    Before I proceed, there are a few points I need to cover.

    If we cancel your domain, it can take up to several weeks for our domain registrar to release the domain, and we can’t guarantee that your domain will be available to you again, once canceled.

    If you want to keep using your domain, but you don’t want to use WordPress.com anymore, you don’t have to cancel it. Instead, you can move the domain to another site, using the Domain Administration tool under Store > Domains, at the bottom of the page.

    For more information on using the domain elsewhere, please see:

    Once you confirm how you’d like to proceed, I will get started processing your transaction :-)

    hi. I don’t think its that I want to upgrade or change to a new domain – I just chose the wrong ‘ending’ for my domain. I’ve had a look and I cant see how I can do this. i’m sorry, I know i’m really hopeless at this.

    You’re doing fine!

    The ending is part of the domain, and if you need to change it, you will need a new domain.

    Review my response and check out the pages I linked to.

    If you need further assistance, let me know and I will be glad to help.
