  Hi there,

  You’ve reached support for the free sites hosted at WordPress.com. Your site is using the free WordPress software available here:

  http://wordpress.org.

  To clear up any confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different entities. You can read more about that here:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  Can you tell me what site you are using for you WordPress.org site? If you are talking about:

  heysimpson.com

  please note that this is hosting with us at WordPress.com, not Hostgator. If you want to use this domain with Hostgator, please follow these steps:

  Change a Domain’s Name Servers

  You’ll need to obtain the name server values from Hostgator. You should be able to find them on their support documentation, or contact them and ask for the information. (Name servers may be referred as “nameservers” or “NS records” instead.)

  I hope this helps – let me know if you have any more questions!

  I started using wordpress.com and when I payed for the domain it was while I was on wordpress.com. Now Im trying to transfer my blog and domain to wordpress.org but its completely not happening. It just redirects me to wordpress.com every time.

  Currently that is because your nameservers are still pointing to us as seen here:

  https://who.wildwestdomains.com/whoisstd.aspx?domain=heysimpson.com&prog_id=wildwestdomains

  Please get Hostgators’ nameservers and update it to that by following the guide I provided you above.

  Cheers!
