  After a quick trial run, I decided not to link justjuliewrites and twostepsolutions. I would like to delete twostepsolutions then start a new account with this URL. May I do that and not lose the “twostepsolutions” name? Thanks, Julie

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

  Howdy Julie!

  I can definitely help you to do that. First, we’ll need to create that separate account that will manage twostepsolutions.wordpress.com. Can you do that following the steps here?

  https://signup.wordpress.com/signup/?user=1

  Then, we’ll transfer the blog to that account.

  We don’t want to delete the site because it would be lost forever (you wouldn’t be able to start a new account at that address).

  Hi Jeremy:

  I am thrilled to receive your help! I just started a new account. I did so under “Two step solution” and it went through. The only problem is that I was still logged into wordpress and it put it under my current account! I now have 3 blogs! I will log off and try it again.

  Thanks, J

  It looks like you actually created a new blog here:

  twostepsolution.wordpress.com

  We want to create a new username, not a new blog. Can you log-out of WordPress.com using this link?

  http://d.pr/i/1gjlx

  That’s on the following page:

  http://wordpress.com/me

  Then, visit the following URL:

  https://signup.wordpress.com/signup/?user=1

  From that URL, you should be able to create a new username.
