  how do i point my wordpress domain to a different domain besides the wordpress blog? i no longer want the blog but i want the domain name, and i want it to point to another domain i own at godaddy. i don’t have webhosting for the other godaddy domain, but i have just a one page website there.

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

  Hi there!

  You can point your domain to a GoDaddy site following these directions:

  Let me know if I can help further!

  hi – i already saw those directions, godaddy tech support says that is not going to work, i need the instructions for domain forwarding.

  Hi there!

  You should only use domain forwarding if you don’t want the domain to appear as the URL of your site.

  I’m not sure why GoDaddy would tell you those directions won’t work. Did you try them and come across an error?
