How to change DNS

    Hi ,

    I need help with changing my DNS on wordpress.com . My site is endrereviews.com . I have recently got a hosting account with hostgator & the hostgator nameservers for this site are ns1199.hostgator.com & ns1200.hostgator.com , but my site is presently hosted at wordpress.com.

    I have managed to find the page from where I can change the DNS. The problem is that it says it supports these 5 formats :
    MX <pref> <host>
    TXT <text>
    CNAME <subdomain> <host>
    A <subdomain> <IP>
    SRV <_service._protocol> <priority> <weight> <port> <domain>

    But I don’t know which is the format that matches the nameservers of my new host. I have already tried entering the nameservers as they are & saving them without any success. Can someone kindly tell me how I can add my new nameservers for my site in my wordpress.com account ? Thanks
