  I am logged in as myself and setting up a site for a friend. Can I do this and change the info/contact to him later?

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

  Hi there,

  Do you mean this account will be your friend’s, but you’re using your own email address for now? If so, then yes, you can just update the account email when you hand it over to him to use his email instead. However, if you register a domain I’d recommend doing it with his contact information already.

  If you mean you’re creating a site for your friend in your account, you can transfer the site to your friend’s account when you’re done. If your friend doesn’t have an account yet, he can sign up for it here:

  And once the site is ready you can transfer it to his account as explained here:
