  Hi there,

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

  • ns1.domainz.net.nz
  • ns2.domainz.net.nz

  You can view this here:

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

  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:

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

  Let me know if you have any questions with this!

   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.

  • 192.0.78.12
  • 192.0.78.13
