  If I purchase a custom domain name through WordPress, will all links to my previously written posts (wherever they are linked on the web, in newsletters, etc.) still work? When someone clicks on a pre-custom-domain blogpost link of mine on Facebook, for example, will it take them to the original post? Thank you.

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

  Hi there,

  Yes, if you switch to a custom domain on your blog, all of the links using your free WordPress.com address will still work. For example, if you have a link to a post using your pre-custom-domain address, it will redirect to the correct link for that post using your new custom domain. :)

  Please let me know if you have any other questions about that!
