  Good Evening,
  I recently found out that I have two accounts. One I created back in college and forgot about and one that I created more recently. Is there a way to merge these two accounts so as not to have two?
  Thank you,
  Elizabeth

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

  Good evening,
  It’s fairly easy to transfer one blog from one account into another account! Here is a link to the help document that takes you through the step-by-step directions.

  If you follow those directions, both your old blog and your new one will appear under one user account.

  Step 1

  Open the My Blogs page. Move your mouse over the site you would like to transfer and click the Transfer Blog link that appears. You will only see the option to transfer a site if you own it.

  Step 2

  Carefully read the warning message. If you wish to continue with the transfer, click the box next to “I understand, now let me continue”

  In the box that appears, enter the username or email address of the WordPress.com user you wish to transfer the site to, then click Transfer Blog.

  Step 3

  Check the inbox of the email address your WordPress.com account is registered to. Open the email we’ve sent you and click the link it contains to finish the transfer.

  Your blog transfer will not be completed until you click the link.

  I hope that helps! Happy blogging.
