  Hi,

  I am in the final stage of moving my domain (epicbeatsforhier.com) from wordpress.com to wordpress.org / hostgator.

  See my new server client name below:

  1st Nameserver: ns8237.hostgator.com
  2nd Nameserver: ns8238.hostgator.com

  Please do what’s necessary at your end to complete this transfer.

  Thanks in advance!

  Hi Stein,

  I’m a bit confused. Do you just want to update the nameservers to the ones you mentioned? Or do you want to completely transfer out the domain registration?

  Let me know!

  Hi Grace,

  Yes I am in a process with you guys to move to an other web hosted because you were not able to provide static html which was needed for my blog /website.

  I have received the following message from my new web host;

  Your domain’s nameservers still point to WordPress.com, as shown at http://leafdns.com/index.cgi?testid=C7A31426

  You will need to get with the domain’s registrar and update the nameservers to the ones provided for your hosting package. These are in the hosting package’s welcome email, however I have included that below in case you do not currently have a copy.

  1st Nameserver: ns8237.hostgator.com
  2nd Nameserver: ns8238.hostgator.com

  Best regards,

  Hi Stein,

  So it looks like you just want to change the nameservers. I have gone ahead and done that. If you still see your WordPress.com site, can you please try clearing out your cache and cookies using the guide below?

  Please note your domain is still registered through us, so make sure it is renewed yearly through us for you domain to stay up on your Hostgator site.
