Domain Name

  • Good Day, Please help!!
    I accidently purchased a misspelled domain name. It has a m instead of an n.
    1) Is there anyway I could change that without having to buy a new domain?
    2) If i have to buy a new domain name will it change the creator plan package I’ve already paid for?

    WP.com: Yes
    Jetpack: Yes
    Correct account: Yes

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to moderators and staff)
