  I set up the blog for a new project last year, the project is now funded and I want to enable other members of the company to add to the blog, link it to the company email address and pay for it with the company card. I want to keep all content but give the blog a new log in – how can I do this?

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

  Hey there,

  It sounds as if your best solution will be to create a new user account and transfer the site from your personal account to that company account.

  I should say that we do not suggest that a group of people share a logon. This creates laxity in the security of the site.

  It would be better to create ONE account that ‘owns’ the site, and give everyone else in the organization administrative rights by adding them to the site individually.

  Here is a breakdown of the different type of users you can add to site, as well as instructions to add multiple users to your site:

  I hope this helps! If you have any other concerns, drop me a note. Thanks much!
