  Hi,

  I am planning to go in for Premium word press hosting for my custom website. Will it be enough to change the A record to point to wordpress server or do i need to change my nameservers?

  Regards,
  Raja

  Hi,
  The best way to map your domain to your WordPress.com blog/site is to change your domain’s name server value’s to these:

  NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

  Read about it here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/map-existing-domain#2-ask-your-domain-provider-to-update-your-dns-settings

  However, if your registrar requires that you create A records, then you can ask for the relevant information regarding that to the staff by tagging this question with the modlook tag on the Tags section of the sidebar.

  NOTE: WordPress.com IP’s change over time due to which, your domain might stop working at some point in the future. If that happens, please get in touch with the WordPress staff using the modlook tag or by directly contacting support at: https://wordpress.com/help/contact, to find out the most current IP’s and then update your A records accordingly.

  Thanks! 🙂
