  I’m brand new to WordPress ! I have a domain registered with “123-reg”, all paid up! I’d like the URL to point to my new WordPress website (which is now ready, just under a temporary name at the moment). I am happy to explore the 123-reg control panel to learn how to do this. Is there something I need to do/find out from my WordPress account first of all?

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

  Thanks – I’ve taken a look at the link you kindly sent, and it seems to have everything I need. It seems I need to enter NS1.WORDPRESS.COM etc through the 123-reg control panel…will cross that bridge when I come to it! Will be a first time! Thanks!
