    Can you please tell me what dns records I need to add so that I can point my domain to my wordpress blog, without having to change the name servers?

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

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

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

    It looks like you already have changed the name servers for peterdayconsultancy.com to WordPress.com and the domain is successfully working as of now.

    However, if you would like to use 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:

    76.74.254.120
66.155.11.238
192.0.80.250
76.74.254.123
192.0.81.250
66.155.9.238

    Let me know if you need anything else!
