  Hi,
  I wanted to purchase starzecs.com so I could have both .com and .co.uk

  I noticed that when I put .com in my browser it comes up with a different website than my own?
  .Co.uk points to the correct site but .com goes somewhere else even when I set this as primary domain – can anyone help?

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

  Hi,
  The starzecs.com domain is pointing to a different host. To have it show the same content as starzecs.co.uk, the name servers for starzecs.com need to be changed. Here’s the guide for that: https://en.support.wordpress.com/map-existing-domain/

  Hi

  I didn’t own this domain previously, how come I was allowed to buy the domain if wordpress isn’t going to host it?
