 * I have an wordpress.com blog and recently changed to my new self-hosted website(
   also wordpress). I wanted to tell Google Webmaster Tools to change the adress
   from maremmageheimtipp.wordpress.com to maremmageheimtipp.com. Webmaster Tools
   told me that the 301-redirects didn’t work, so I was not able to get my new adress
   confirmed. Later I realized that Google first redirects from [http://maremmageheimtipp.wordpress.com](http://maremmageheimtipp.wordpress.com)
   to [https://maremmageheimtipp.wordpress.com](https://maremmageheimtipp.wordpress.com)
   before finally redirecting to my new domain. I think that’s why Webmaster Tools
   tell me my old site does not redirect to the new one. What I want to do is change
   the canonical url from [https://&#8230](https://&#8230); to [http://&#8230](http://&#8230);
   to avoid the first (unnecessary) redirect. Unfortunately it’s not possible to
   make these changes in Webmaster Tools … so how can I make them on my (old) wordpress-
   website?
 * Thanks so much!

 * We really can’t help with WordPress.com issues here.
 * To clear up any confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different 
   entities: [https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_vs_WordPress.com](https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_vs_WordPress.com)
 * WordPress.com has complete documentation and support contacts at [https://support.wordpress.com/](https://support.wordpress.com/)
