  Hi there,

  I have desperately been trying to contact WP.com support. Please help!

  I am switching my wp.com account to wp.org. Although WP.com sent me an email acknowledging the succesful transfer of my nameserver, the DNS is still not registering.

  I registered the domain exactly 48 hours ago.

  Please advise! I have read all the troubleshooting and I am following lynda.com installation tutorials, and I still cannot figure it out.

  Thank you.

  Hi there, it can take up to 72 hours (usually much less) for the DNS changes to propagate. From where I am on the internet, it looks like your nameservers have been updated to ns195.hostgator.com and ns196.hostgator.com and http://freespiritsmusic.com redirects to HostGator, where you now need to set up your WordPress installation.
