    Can you explain a bit more clearly what you are trying to do? Do you have a externally registered domain that you are looking to map to your WordPress.com site using an A Record/IP address?

    Sorry for the delayed response (but thanks for your speedy one to my original question).

    That’s it exactly. I am going to be mapping a different domain to my blog and just need the info to do that.

    The best way to map a domain to a WordPress.com blog is to set your domain’s nameservers to the following values:

    NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
    NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
    NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

    However, if your registrar requires that you create A records, please note that our IPs change over time. Because of this, your domain might stop working at some point in the future. If that happens, please get in touch with us to find out the most current IPs and then update your A records accordingly.

    If you still want to go ahead and map your domain using A records, please be sure to create at least two, pointing to two different IPs from the list below:

    76.74.254.123

    192.0.80.250

    192.0.81.250

    66.155.11.238

    66.155.9.238

    76.74.254.120
