  I have a domain registered with WordPress.com that will move to another host. Is this service included in a Guided Transfer? Can i expect the Guided Transfer team to update DNS and to change name servers to point the domain outside of WordPress.com?

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

  Hi there,

  The Guided Transfer upgrade includes having your domain name servers here on WordPress.com updated to point to the new hosting service. Other things included with guided transfer are listed here:

  In case you decide to not purchase Guided Transfer and want to do it yourself, we also have the steps on how to point your name servers outside of WordPress.com here:

  Best,
