  I have two blogs and I want them to be separate from each other. If I google itsallgoodlife.com, breadmakesyoufat.com comes up. These are two different things completely. Can they be disconnected from each other but both under my name? How do I do that?
  Thanks

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

  Hi there,

  The way things are configured currently, both of the two domains you mentioned are pulling up the same blog: breadmakesyoufatdotcom.wordpress.com.

  If you’d like to start creating new content for itsallgoodlife.com, then what you’ll need to do is create a new blog by logging in to your Dashboard and then going to My Blogs on the left hand side of the screen and then at the bottom of the page click the button which says “Register Another Blog.”

  Once you have created the new blog, let me know. I can move the domain over and then the two domains will pull up different content!

  thanks! When I do that, I can't register the new blog because it says it exists, so now I guess I should completely delete the existing one before I can go ahead?

  Just reading some more – I can also change the blog address for the 1 site (or transfer the blog, but that seems more complicated). Is that no an easier option?

  I’m sorry, I didn’t realize that you already had a second blog. I see that you have one named lindyomassi.wordpress.com. Do you want me to move itsallgoodlife.com on to that one?

  No, I want itsallgoodlife to be different and not even show up to readers that it is connected.
  What I want is two totally separate blogs. Right now, I have (email visible only to moderators and staff) which is attached to breadmakesyoufat and I didn’t realize that once I started a new blog that they would be visibly attached to one another for visitors to the blog. So now I get it, and I realize I will have to make a totally new account for itsallgoodlife if they are to be separate.
  So the question is what to do.I think my only option is that I have to ‘change blog address’ which means opening a whole new account, but that’s ok

  Hi!

  Let’s take a step back. Currently, on your account, you have the following sites:

  lindyjoffeomassidotcom.wordpress.com (custom domains itsallgoodlife.com & lindyjoffeomassi.com)

  lindyjoffeomassi.wordpress.com

  breadmakesyoufatdotcom.wordpress.com (custom domain breadmakesyoufat.com)

  If I understand correctly, you would like the lindyjoffeomassidotcom.wordpress.com site and the associated custom domains moved to a completely separate user account (other than lindyomassi). This way, the sites wouldn’t be related at all. They would have a completely separate login from breadmakesyoufatdotcom.wordpress.com. Is that correct?

  If so, you will need to create a new account at WordPress.com. Then, I can move the site over to the new account for you. To create a new account, you will want to logout of your current account and use the link here:
