  I would like to change my web address to outpouringofasaint to outpouringsofasaint. Not sure how to make the change. I’m a new blogger. Where would I go to change the address?

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

  Since you don’t really have any content at your first site, why not just go ahead and register a new site with the name you want, if it is available? http://en.support.wordpress.com/register-a-blog/#adding-new-blog-to-an-existing-account

  After you’ve registered the new site, you can simply make the first one Private, so that it’s not accessible to the public and search engines, and use it for testing purposes. http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/

  You’re welcome.

  Once you add the new site, remember to also set it as your primary site in your Personal Settings so that when you comment or post in the forums, the link in your username will go to the correct site.
