  Is it AT ALL possible to change my blog’s url from twincitiesfrugal.com TO http://www.twincitiesfrugal.com? I want the www in there…but already paid the $15 to register the domain without the “wordpress” in it. If it’s possible, how do I do it?

  Have you searched the forum on this? There was another post about it just a bit ago. It is also explained in the FAQ.

  Basically, the answer is no. The www part is redundant.

  The way you have it set up, the twincitiesfrugal.com domain maps to the wordpress.com domain. This works whether or not you have the www in the url.

  If you want the wordpress domain to map to the twincitiesfrugal.com domain, you’ll have to switch things round. And, as Vivian says, you can’t have it map to http://www.twincitiesfrugal.com
