  I have built a site with wordpress.com. Version of wordpress.com is ?

  Primary blog is: Liberation for the Nation. This blog has 22 pages. This request refers to this blog only.

  My username is ‘liberna’.

  My account has the email address (email visible only to moderators and staff) (that is myrna then underline-space then shreve)

  The original domain was liberatenation.wordpress.com
  I bought a domain name from wordpress for this blog. Domain name: my-shreve.com
  I understand that my-shreve.com still is hosted by wordpress.

  When I try to read my blog by entering liberatenation.wordpress.com or my-shreve.com I am told the site is ‘under development’. And I cannot use the add a page to my blog.

  I have bought hosting for the site from fatcow and have been attempting to redirect to them. They have told me there are several things I can do.

  What I want (most simply) is for people to be able to read the Liberation for the Nation blog; and, of course, I want to be able to add pages and posts to the blog. Frankly I see no advantages to be hosted by Fatcow. Perhaps I am wrong.

  So how do I get my blog out of UNDER DEVELOPMENT?

  The privacy has been removed from the blog. I have entered point to ns1.fatcow.com and ns2.fatcow.com and I have been told to contact wordpress by wildwest domains. I am tired of the run around.

  I am willing to purchase a redirect from Store or something else from store if that will take care of the matter, so I can have what I need?

  Please tell me what I need to do (or do it for me) and let me know what to needs to be entered for searching for the home page of the blog so it can be read.

  Thank you for your assistance.

  Hi there, I’ll be glad to help you sort this out.

  Did you opt to give up your liberatenation.wordpress.com blog and decide instead to create your own site and host it over at Fatcow?

  When you purchase your own independent hosting like that offered at Fatcow, they provide space for you to host your own site, but then you need to design and build a site and upload it to the host, or use software that some hosts provide to build your site.

  As you know, your domain is currently set to use the Fatcow name servers, so if you did create a site on your new hosting plan, and are not sure how to publish it, you’ll need to contact Fatcow directly to find out how to make sure that site is published and active.

  Please let me know if you need further help.
