  Hi,
  I am trying to point the domain name to a different page but I cannot seem to find any information on how to do it.

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

  Hi there,

  Are you trying to point your domain to a hosting account with another company? Or are you trying to forward your domain to a specific page on another website? If you’re trying to do the former, then you will just need to change your nameservers of your domain:

  Change a Domain’s Name Servers

  Or if your hosting company only gave you an IP address you can change that by managing your DNS:

  DNS records

  If however you want to point your domain to a specific site, that requires something called domain redirection and it is a paid-for add on. It’s not super expensive, but let me know if that’s what you’re looking for as there may be other options (better) because in most cases there are!

  Hi amightywp,

  Thanks for the quick response.

  Here is the blog, http://masharikiradio.me/ – as you can see that link goes to ‘Posts’ tab instead of ‘Home’ tab.

  I want to swap that so every time one goes to the blog, they land on ‘Home’.

  That is what I am having problems fixing.

  Thanks

  Heya,

  When I go to your site, I see that both your Home and your Posts tab pulls up the same thing right now. Do you have a specific page which you would like to have be your home page that is not your blog posts? If so, you can set that to be your static home page by following the directions in this help article:

  Set the Homepage

  Once you set that, when someone visits your domain, that will be what comes up by default. Let me know if you have any questions!
