  Just wait. If you contacted staff, they’ll get back to you when they can. It’s the weekend, remember, and a long weekend in many places.

  But if what you want is to map a new domain name, like whatever.com to the old URL like whatever.wordpress.com DO NOT delete the old whatever.wordpress.com domain. You need it to attach the new name to.

  You can just choose to set the new one as primary and then all people trying to go to the old URL will automatically get the new address.

  Yes, if you set the new domain as primary then nobody sees your old domain, even if that’s what they type in. DO NOT delete it.

  My current blog address is http://www.hanasyed.wordpress.com
  But now I want to change the name of my blog to http://www.fashionguru.wordpress.com

  What would be the best way to proceed?

  @hanasyed,
  There are no wordpress.com blogs that contain “www” in their URLs.
  Your blog’s actual URL is http://hanasyed.wordpress.com
  We cannot “change” URLS s but we can register another blog and import the contents from the 1st one into the second one.
