DOmain issue and question. Thanks for your help
-
Got a question. I enjoy wordpress. However, my address is http://theluncheonsociety.wordpress.com/
However, I own the domain of http://www.theluncheonsociety.com
My question is this—how do I switch addresses but still hold on to everything?
Please advise.
Thanks–Bob McBarton

To map a domain name you already own such as theluncheonsociety.com to a WordPress.com blog:
1. Update the name servers to NS1.WORDPRESS.COM, NS2.WORDPRESS.COM, and NS3.WORDPRESS.COM through the registrar where you purchased the domain
2. Wait for the name server update to propagate (usually takes a few hours).
3. Add the domain to the form at the top of the Upgrades -> Domains page in your WordPress.com blog.
4. Click the “Add domain to blog” button.
5. Follow the prompts to purchase the domain mapping upgrade.These steps are also posted in this help page if you need to refer back to it: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/
When you map a custom domain to a WordPress.com blog, the content on the http://theluncheonsociety.wordpress.com/ blog won’t be changed and the custom domain will get mapped over the top of that blog.
