    If one WordPress account has created a webpage, can it be switched over to an entirely new WordPress account?

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

    Yes it can be transferred to another username account. Every blog has a sole owner and it is the person with the username account who registered the blog under that username account. That username account has to add the other username account(s) ie. as Admin to the blog you want to be transferred to them and then use the process to transfer the blog to their username account.
