  My web host – Hostgator – requires an IP address in order to made a change in my DNS records (this is needed to complete the sub-domain name mapping)

  Hi there – you are trying to map toy.drone365.com to your WordPress.com blog, correct?

  If so, there’s no need for an IP address to map a subdomain – rather Hostgator needs to add a CNAME record on their end to point that subdomain here.

  It should look something like this:

  toy.drone365.com. IN CNAME dronee365.wordpress.com.

  Can you please pass this along to Hostgator and let me know if they have further questions? :)
