    I have made a new wordpress site: testreginadesign.com and I am trying to redirect it to my old domain http://www.reginadesign.se ( that I want to keep). I have been talking to my web host support and they need my A record and C name In order to be able to finish the relocation (and keep all my E-mail adresses at my old web host “Loopia”).
    Loopia support say you have to give the Arecord and Cname to me!

    Hope you can help me, I really like the new site and i want it to be ready as soon as possible :)
    Best regards, Regina Rönnqvist

    Hi there,

    We don’t have a single IP address for your site since we have your site on a number of geographically-diverse servers to improve speed and uptime.

    Since we change out the IPs we use based on when different datacenters/server go online, we don’t suggest using IP addresses.

    Our suggested route is to map your domain (by adding it via the Store > My Domains page on your site’s dashboard), add the MX records currently on your site to our Store > My Domains > Edit DNS, and then change your nameservers to WordPress.com.

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