How do I start over making a new blog, but use only one of my two domain names?

    Someone out there has to be more intelligent than me, and I sure could use some help/advice/a sharp knife…something. I chose a theme, ended up having two domains. Apparently paid to update both so they wouldn’t show ‘.wordpress.com’. I know I can delete (& receive the $13…just upgraded yesterday). My concern is…I don’t know if they’re somehow connected and if I delete one will I delete the other one? Next, I’ve entered an “About Me’ page and each time I search for it…it takes me forever. I’m definitely doing something terribly wrong. I’m making it much more difficult than it should be… I’ve gone through the tutorial which apparently I must do again. I just want to get my site built so I can let my creative juices start flowing in the right direction, ya know? I need help…in many ways…but with Word Press for now! Thanks.

    Hi Deb – No worries, I think we can work this out without breaking out the knives. ;)

    You currently have two sites, and each site has a custom domain:
    http://dtpositive.com/
    http://progressive-you.com/

    Any changes you make on one site won’t affect the other. You can cancel either domain. You’re still within the refund window (which is 48 hours), so let me know if you’d like to cancel one of them.

    There’s a default About page on both blogs – that’s just a placeholder page until you edit it or add another page. You can edit, delete it, or add more pages from here in one blog:
    https://dtpositive.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=page

    And here in the other:
    https://finallymellc.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=page

    I recommend adding a couple of posts and maybe some images to either site – it’s actually much easier to set up your site after you’ve added some content, so you can see how everything is going to look. To add a post, go here and just choose Text:
    http://wordpress.com/post/

    We have more instructions on posting here:
    Posts

    It looks like you started to add posts on one of your blogs, but they’re all currently still in draft form:
    https://dtpositive.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php

    If you have more specific questions as you go along, let me know – I’ll be happy to help! :)
