  Hi

  Can you tell me how to transfer ownership of my blog to another user? The other user is already signed up as a full access contributor, but I want myself removed from the blog completely.

  Thanks,
  Jen

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

  Hello there,
  Every blog has a sole owner and it is the person with the username account who registered the blog under that username account.

  To transfer a blog from one username account A to another username account B you must first log in under the username account A that owns the blog you want to transfer to the other username account.

  Then you add the other username account B as an Admin of the blog.
  adding users http://en.support.wordpress.com/adding-users/
  user roles http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/

  Then A can use this process to transfer the blog to that username account B instead http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#transferring-your-blog-to-another-user-or-account

  Once that’s done then see here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#removing-users
