  Hi I purchased a domain name with wordpress.com (www.newhealthexaminer.com) I then purchased a hosting subscription from BlueHost and had that domain name pointed to Bluehost. After a few days I decided I didn’t want to use BlueHost and I cancelled my account with them but my domain is still pointing to Bluehost. How can I have my domain name point to wordpress.com again?

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

  Hi there!

  You can update your domains name servers by going here:

  http://wordpress.com/my-domains/

  Click “Edit” next to newhealthexaminer.com

  Click on Name Servers on the left menu, and you’ll see the Bluehost name servers listed. Instead of using those, select the “Use WordPress.com Name Servers” radio button” then Save Changes.

  Let me know if you hit any snags. :)

  Best,

  -Alex G.

  Sorry this one was a little tricky to find! For what it’s worth, it used to be a lot harder to find (in my opinion,) hidden within the Store menus in each blog’s /wp-admin/.

  We’ve been gradually adding some changes to WordPress.com that make these settings easier to get to:
