  I recently switched from WP.com to WP.org, keeping the same domain name davidbruns.com. When someone types in http://www.davidbruns.com it does not redirect to my site. Bluehost tells me (1) my site is still being directed to WP.com domain name and (2) only WP.com can make this change.

  Can you help?

  Thanks – David

  Hi David,

  In order to point your domain to Bluehost, you will just need to change the name servers as described here:

  Change a Domain’s Name Servers

  Currently, they’re set to the following:

  NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

  The correct name servers for Bluehost should be the following:

  ns1.BlueHost.com 
  ns2.BlueHost.com

  Let me know if you run into any trouble!
