  Hm, I’m not entirely sure what you mean.

  Currently, what are the two URLs of the two sites?

  Thanks Mac,

  old site through WordPress:
  https://wordpress.com/home/laurasturza.wordpress.com

  and

  new site through Dreamhost: http://www.laurasturza.com

  Dreamhost told me to disable the old site. Is that what I need to do? If so, how?

  Thanks
  Laura

  Hi Laura, sure. You can do that here:
  https://wordpress.com/settings

  If you want to redirect laurasturza.wordpress.com to the new site, we have this option as well:
