  Hi!

  (Sorry for my bad English, I hope u understand my question)
  I do have a blog http://www.reviewsandswatches.wordpress.com.
  Now I would like to link it whit my own domain name http://www.reviewsandswatches.nl
  but I cant do this? I did try many things, but I cant do it ;(

  I still want to keep all the things I’ve made on http://www.reviewsandswatches.wordpress.com and move that to http://www.reviewsandswatches.nl…
  If that makes any sense? :)

  I did receive a token from the host were I bought the domain name after sending them a email with the message I wanted to move my domain name to WordPress.
  So if u want to I can give you the token if that is needed.

  Hopefully you did understand my message and I hope you would help me :)

  Thanks a lot,

  Greets Sheling

  HI Sheling :)

  After checking your domain, I found that the nameservers are not set to us yet.

  Please go to your domain registrar’s site and log into the control panel. You will need to update the name servers as below:

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

  For more information, please visit the help documentation provided by the registrar and our support page:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/

  Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

  Hi Sheling,

  I would if I could, but unfortunately, I cannot do this for you because the domain is registered elsewhere. Please contact your registrar, and have them update the nameservers for you. I have no control over the control panel of domain registered with another company.

  You can find more about the difference between domain registration and domain hosting here:

  Please let me know if you have any questions!
