  I purchased my domain name through wordpress and I was hoping to change where the address redirects to. I contacted the domain provider and they stated that they cannot change the website redirect that I should be contacting you instead. Could you please advise as to how I can redirect my domain name: http://www.ejaytupe.com to an address of my choosing as opposed to my wordpress acount? Thank you.

  Once 60 days have passed since you registered the domain, you can transfer it out altogether to a new registrar:
  Sure thing! You can transfer your domain by following these instructions:

  If you have any trouble, please let me know which step you’re getting stuck at, and what happens when you try to follow it. I’ll be happy to help you out! :)
