    I have a hosted blog through wordpress.org.
    I want to move it to wordpress.com.

    I have read every single guide on the subject. Trust me.

    Use “the DNS tools provided by your domain registrar, remove any existing nameservers and add the following:

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

    There are instructions for changing the name servers on a whole range of servers and I’ve found some for wordpress.com BUT I NEED HELP CHANGING THE NAME SERVER ON WORDPRESS.ORG
    The dashboard is different. There is nothing called ‘domain’ under settings.

    Please help!

    Not really – WordPress.ORG is not a host – they are the keepers of the WordPress software. You are hosted somewhere else.

    You need to change the name servers at your registrar (not your host)

    A WordPress.ORG install has a bit different dashboard

    Ok that is really helpful to know. Thank you.
    Amy idea how to find out who I’m hosted by so I can change it?
