  Hello,

  I’ve been trying to change ownership of one of my WordPress sites (conradsdelimeats.com), and I researched many forum posts and articles (including this one: https://en.support.wordpress.com/transferring-a-site-to-another-wordpress-com-account/). However, the option to ‘transfer the blog’ isn’t given to my websites (just the blogs). Is there another way to do this?

  Thanks,
  Lena Ready

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

  P.S. I’m not sure why it says that the site I need help with is moviesgoodtoo.wordpress.com. The one I actually need help with is conradsdelimeats.com.

  Because you are currently logged in to a WordPress.com account where that site is set as the primary one. The WordPress.com instructions won’t work as the site you need help with isn’t hosted here.

  Domain Name: CONRADSDELIMEATS.COM
  Registrar: Tucows Domains Inc.
  Name Server: NS.INMOTIONHOSTING.COM
  Name Server: NS2.INMOTIONHOSTING.COM

  Perhaps your domain registrar or host could advise you. And if that site is using the WordPress.org software then you can register an account at: https://wordpress.org/support/

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  I reached out to the host, InMotion, and they said it was a website ownership could only be transferred through WordPress.

  Then you’ll need to register an account at the correct support forum for further assistance.
