    I changed to a self hosted blog a few weeks ago and wish to change my URL. The new one I want is available. I use bluehost for website hosting. I know I’ll need to contact them. But anything in particular I need to do on WordPress to make this change? I’ll set up
    A redirect but wondering what I may need to do to Transfer all my content, stats etc to the new URL. Thanks everyone.

  • If you are changing domains within bluehost, that is not moving your hosting as well as changing your domain, that should be relatively easy. First, add the new domain to the account. This should automatically create a folder for the new domain’s contents. Go to the old domain’s admin panels and change your site and blog urls to the new site. Move your files to the new domain. Tada. Check https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Moving_WordPress and with Bluehost for more details.
