  Hi there,

  The link for engussong.blog leads to the following message:
  Validating aengussong.blog
  Incorrect A Record
  The A Record for aengussong.blog is set to a WordPress.com nameserver. Instead, you should remove all nameservers for your domain and specify the WordPress.com nameservers below to map your domain name to a WordPress.com blog. For instructions and some important warnings before making such a change, please see this document. If you recently made this change please wait a few hours for the records to update.

  NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS3.WORDPRESS.COM
  There is information on how to set up domain mapping in our support documentation. If you need help after that, please contact our support team.

  Hi applesofthesun,

  I can see you chatted to another member of staff about your domain. As @ackaeser mentioned, the name servers are now pointing to WordPress.com and the domain is working as expected.

  Your plan includes email and Live Chat support — if you need any further help please contact us from this page and we’ll be happy to take a look:
