  I’m trying to connect my WP.com site to my Wix site and need to update the name servers on billkerschbaum.wordpress.com. How can I do that?

  I need to update them to:
  Log in to your domain provider’s website and update the Name Server settings for billkerschbaumblog.wordpress.com to:
  – ns3.wixdns.net
  – ns2.wixdns.net

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

  Hi wordindeed,

  There are no domain purchases on billkerschbaum.wordpress.com — it’s only possible to update the name servers for a custom domain.

  Would you like to redirect billkerschbaum.wordpress.com to a Wix site?

  Once I know more, I’ll be happy to help!

  Yes, I’m trying to point it to a Wix site so that I can use it as a subdomain on that site. Thanks!

  Hi wordindeed,

  You can redirect billkerschbaum.wordpress.com to the domain you are using for Wix, with a Site Redirect:

  Site Redirect

  so that I can use it as a subdomain on that site

  billkerschbaum.wordpress.com is already a subdomain of wordpress.com, so that won’t be possible. If you owned a custom domain, the name servers could be updated to point to your Wix site.

  Ah, that makes sense. What about my other site, intextwriting.com?

  intextwriting.com was registered with GoDaddy, so any redirects would need to be set up through them. I noticed that domain is already redirecting to a Wix site (billkerschbaum.com).
