  I want to create a new blog but with the same address. Would it be possible to change this current address, then I will be using the old address to my new blog?

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

  It’s not possible to change the address of a blog and free it up. If you want to keep the posts from the current site but on a different address, you’d want to take these steps:

  1. Create the new site address https://wordpress.com/start
  2. Export from the current site https://en.support.wordpress.com/export/
  3. Import to the new site https://en.support.wordpress.com/import/
  4. Bulk clear the old site to restart it https://en.support.wordpress.com/empty-site/
  5. Start posting and customizing your existing address with the new content.

  Hope that helps!
