  I have a current WordPress blog (greengypsy.nl), but some people are searching for me on greengipsy.nl. Is there a way I can redirect those people from a not existing website (greengipsy.nl) to my blog (greengypsy.nl)?

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

  Hi Kim,

  The only way that you could do that would be to purchase the additional domain as well and have them both point towards your site. We do allow multiple domains to be set up on one blog for just that purpose, so that wouldn’t be a problem, but you would have to pay the same price for the second domain.

  Let me know if you have any questions about the entire process or if I wasn’t clear!

  HI Amightywp,

  Thanks you for your reply!
  I bought another domain and called it greengipsy.nl, but the next step is unclear to me. How do I make sure visitors who are looking for greengipsy.nl, are being redirected to greengypsy.nl?

  Heya Kim,

  OK, everything is set up correctly within your blog. Now, when people type in greengipsy.nl, they’ll be redirected automatically to greengypsy.nl (with a “y”). Also, with time, Google should pick up the existence of both of these domains and they will both report search results. You do have to be patient however because it can take several weeks for the search crawls to complete.
