  How do I change my default blog address? When I am on “My Domains” page it lists my default blog address as “toxicproductlady.wordpress.com” and I would like it to be “LymeLightLisa.wordpress.com” but cannot figure out how to change it. On this same page (the My Domains page) I selected LymeLightLisa.com as my primary domain. Long story short, when I go to my blog, it says toxicproductlady at the top and i want it to say lymelightlisa

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

  The Site title (blog name) and/or the optional Tagline can be changed on the top of this page at any time. > Settings > General …
  “save changes”. You can insert spaces into the site title there. That is exactly where search engine spiders look for the site title and removing it from there can cause issues with getting your content indexed. Note that the site title (blog name) and blog address URL do not have to be the same but it’s better for SEO (search engine optimization) if they are the same.
