  Good afternoon! Im switching my site (www.SPINMYHIT.com) over from a WordPress.Com site to a WordPress.Org site with hosting via BlueHost. My URL still points to the my old WordPress.Com site though. How do I get it to post to my new BlueHost site?

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

  Hi there,

  You’ll need to point the nameservers of spinmyhit.com over to Bluehost or transfer the domain over to Bluehost so that the domain and site are under the same host.

  For instructions on moving your domain to another host, please visit our support page:

  Let me know if you need any further assistance.

  Thanks!

  Ok. I went there but I can’t find my EPP Authorization code. I can’t even log into my dashboard because its saying that my site was suspended for violating terms of service so the directions are helping me at all. Please advise….

  Hi there,

  You won’t be able to through your wp-admin, but you can go to your manage purchases screen to access your custom domain.

  Let me know if you have any problems.

  Thanks!

  Good afternoon! I went to my “MANAGE PURCHASES” screen and when I click on the domain name nothing happens. No drop down menu, no alternate screen, etc. It just sits there. Im sorry to keep bothering you but Im really lost.

  Hi there,

  I will give you temporary access to your site (24 hours) so that you will be able to transfer your site. Please contact me once you successfully transfer the site. Otherwise, I’ll re-close access to the site.

  Thanks!
