  how do i change my wordpress.com address? I tried changing it in my profile but it didn’t work. I want to change it from kkadian.wordpress.com to commonlawsense.wordpress.com. I made the change in my profile and saved changes, but when i put commonlawsense.wordpress.com into the browser I get the message:
  “commonlawsense.wordpress.com doesn’t exist”

  Did you use this guide? http://en.support.wordpress.com/changing-blog-address/

  That option will permanently disable the address and you will not be able to reuse it. Only select this option if you are sure you will not use the address again.

  If you want to redirect traffic to the new blog, and retain and page rank the blog has or authority your have gained in the niche then you can keep the address and purchase the Site Redirect upgrade.
