  Weebly recommends the following (to which I see no possibilities with wordpress.com):
  I made a website using Weebly and need to point my domain to their servers. Can you set this up or walk me through the process of making these changes? I need to change my A-Records for both “www” and my root domain. That’s one record for http://www.mydomain.com pointing to 199.34.228.59. And one record for mydomain.com also pointing to 199.34.228.59.

  If you need more info on these changes, please see:

  Note that I want to keep using you as my domain registrar. I am not requesting a transfer and do not have new name servers to provide you.

  Thanks!

  I tried adding the host names, but the host name (*) was deemed an invalid character and so was not accepted by wordpress. the (www) host name was accepted, and I will evidently learn in 48hours what that means, if anything.

  Hi there,

  I just made an adjustment to your domain thecheesepress.com to make sure it’s pointed correctly to Weebly, so you’re all set now. Please note that it can take up to 72 hours to changes like this to take full effect and be visible everywhere.

  Also, keep in mind that your domain is still registered at WordPress.com, so you’ll need to renew it here before it expires to keep using it.

  Please let me know if you have any questions about that. :)
