  I’ve read up on how to move my domain name and everything, but I have purchased it less then 60 days ago which puts me in a jam. I believe there is a way to still move it to wordpress.org, but I am confused as to how I would do this. Can someone please help me? Give me some steps I need to go through.

  Hi. You don’t need to wait 60 days. At any time, you can simply change the nameservers of your domain name so that they point to your new hosting provider.

  The 60-day requirement is only if you want to change domain name registrars, which is optional.

  These are the other basic steps to move to WordPress.org:
