  Hi, I registered my domain name with Salt Print and now I am starting a website with WordPress. I have provided my server details to Salt Print but I am unsure what else I need to do? Do I need wordpress premium and web hosting? Do I need to pay for email hosting as well? Thanks in advance

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

  Hi there,

  It looks like your domain is not pointing to WordPress.com name servers yet:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-helper/?host=theoffbeatkombi.com.au

  Please go to your domain registrar’s site and log into the control panel. You will need to update the name servers as below:

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

  After you do this you will need to purchase the domain mapping upgrade ($13/year).

  For more information, please visit the help documentation provided by the registrar and our support page:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/

  Let me know if you have any questions!

  Hi

  It should be completed now. I was under the impression that the mapping was included in WordPress premium. Is this incorrect?

  Thank you.

  Ah sorry, yes you are correct. The domain mapping is included. It has been added you didn’t have to pay for it.

  Cheers!
