Admin page redirect, can't access separate page.

    Hello All,
    Please bear with me, I am still relatively new to this and am learning/in need of your help.
    I have used WordPress.com for a few years to host a blog of mine. I finally decided I wanted to own the domain name and have more control over the site. I have the domain name and set up hosting via BlueHost, and installed wordpress on the domain name. This gave me an admin name and password to log into wordpress with. Except when I type this into wordpress (following the link provided on BlueHost) I can’t log in!
    In an effort to at least get to the wordpress dashboard I tried installing wordpress on BlueHost again and used the same admin name/password, but when I login it just redirections to the dashboard for my wordpress.com site.
    Does this make any sense? I can’t log in to my new wordpress dashboard using the credentials given to me by BlueHost when installing wordpress, and I can’t access my new site from my existing wordpress.com dashboard. I have spent about 2 hours looking into this/troubleshooting and have had 0 luck so far. Any help would be greatly greatly appreciated!

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    We seriously cannot help you with the Bluehost site. Sounds like you need to go through this http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/move-domain/

    Remember, you need to allow up to 72 hours for the DNS to settle down.
