** Will the header and drop down menu structures and all content be transferred?

** Can others who later attempt to visit the older site (by its name) be re-directed to the newly named site? Or, do I need to keep the old site in place for several months with a message on it?

I have set up the domain docmarketingcoach.wordpress.com... so now how do I switch this blog over to the more appropriate domain name?
