  Hi,

  I added an own domain to my wordpress blog, so I passed from
  example.wordpress.com to exampleblog.com
  Now I need to change the domain to an other own domain:
  From exampleblog.com to exampleblog222.com

  Is it possible to use Site Redirect to redirect traffic from exampleblog.com to exampleblog222.com?

  Thanks.

  How about the real names and the real WordPress.COM blog? Then maybe someone will help – I doubt you really own exampleblog.com

  Hi,

  The idea was to follow the explanation in http://en.support.wordpress.com/site-redirect/ , so I thought that the real names were not needed.

  Do you need the real names to answer the question?

  Thanks!!!

  We need the real names of the blogs and URLs otherwise we can’t sort it out. We don’t need to know YOUR real name.

  Hi,

  WordPress.COM blog is : http://igorbellido.wordpress.com
  Now we are using the own domain : http://creadordesensaciones.com

  We want to change to a new own domain : http://igorbellido.com

  The question is if we can use Site Redirect to redirect from http://creadordesensaciones.com to http://igorbellido.com

  Thanks

  Do you want the blog to appear at igorbellido.com or do you intend to host a different site at igorbellido.com and just redirect traffic to that?

  Hi macmanx,

  I want the blog to appear at igorbellido.com

  The plan is to add igorbellido.com in Domains, and set it as a Primary. Then I want to do a permanently redirect from creadordesensaciones.com to igorbellido.com to preserve indexed content in Google , but I don’t know if WordPress Site Redirect can do that.

  Note: I have creadordesensaciones.com and igorbellido.com with GoDaddy.

  Thanks.

  Ok, what I’d recommend doing is mapping igorbellido.com to the blog via Store -> Domains in your Dashboard.

  Then, through GoDaddy, forward creadordesensaciones.com to igorbellido.com.
