  I need to redirect my self-hosted blog to the domain registered with WordPress. The new blog still uses the WordPress platform but is now hosted at another IP, to which I need to redirect my WordPress domain.

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

  Hi Ana,

  You have a few options in terms of routing your domain to your self-hosted site. First, you can transfer your domain registration following the instructions here:

  Transfer a Domain to Another Registrar

  This would be beneficial if you would like your domain and your hosting managed in the same place.

  Alternatively, you can change the name servers on your domain to map it to your self-hosted platform following the instructions here:

  Change a Domain’s Name Servers

  If you cannot use name servers (your new server requires the domain to be mapped through IP address), you can do this following the instructions here:

  Point a Domain to an External IP Address

  Please let me know if you need anything else!
