  Hi there,

  I’m trying to transfer a blog from wordpress.com <http://wordpress.com&gt; to self-hosted WordPress on HostGator. The domain is registered via WordPress.com, and I went in and updated the nameservers as instructed here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/domain-management/

  I double-checked the nameservers and even resubmitted them a second time just in case. The last time I updated them was on the 28th. Now it’s the 30th and the domain is pointing to nowhere in every browser I try, as if it doesn’t exist.

  Here’s the domain: realatlhousewife.com <http://realatlhousewife.com&gt;
  Nameservers: ns453.hostgator.com <http://ns453.hostgator.com&gt; and ns454.hostgator.com <http://ns454.hostgator.com&gt;

  The domain was registered on June 25th, but I don’t believe the 60 day rule applies if I’m just updating the nameservers, right?

  Can anyone shed some light on this?

  Thanks in advance.
