  Hi Neus,

  It looks like your domain is not pointing to WordPress.com name servers yet. Currently, it’s set to:

  ns1.wix.com
  ns2.wix.com

  You can view this here:

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

  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

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

  Hi Grace! Thanks a lot for your help but once when I am in the domains page “Map an Existing Domain” and I try to enter my domain into the form at the top of the page this message appears “Lo sentimos, pero kurtikleather.com no parece ser un nombre de dominio válido”. It mean, invalid domine. Do you know why?

  Hi there,

  You already added the domain to your account, so you don’t need to add it again. You just need to contact your registrar to update the nameservers to us.

  Sorry I don’t understand. What is “registrar”? You mean the place where I buy the domine (I buy it in wix). Where I can get the nameservers? Thanks!

  Yes, you would have to contact Wix to update the nameservers to ours:

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

  If they don’t accept nameservers you can use IPs, but please note 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.

  However, if that’s the only option 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.

  • 192.0.78.12
  • 192.0.78.13
