    Hi there!

    Just a heads up that a .co.uk domain can’t be transferred to WordPress.com. But you can connect it and point the domain to WordPress.com using our nameservers or IP addresses.

    I see that you added a domain connection for certificates4uk.co.uk, but it’s not pointing to your WordPress.com site yet. That goes along with what you wanted: to keep your old/existing site live while you work on your new WordPress.com site with us.

    You can keep working on your site while accessing it via this address: elizaz510.wordpress.com. When the site is ready, you’ll need to add our nameservers or IP addresses to the domain. This must be done on your domain registrar’s website, as the domain is registered with them.

    When you’re ready to point the domain to your WordPress.com site, please let us know. We’ll also need to know if you have any existing email services with the domain that you wish to keep using. We’ll then share specific guides with you (which you can find here, too) and advise on the next steps.

    Feel free to let us know if you have more questions.
