  My site was http:\www.brobobonline.wordpress.com. but some how it was not available or re-directed to another site.

  It looks like your domain is not pointing to WordPress.com name servers yet:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-helper/?host=brotherbobonline.com

  Please go to your domain registrar’s site and log into the control panel. You will need to update the name servers as below:

  NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

  For more information, please visit the help documentation provided by the registrar and our support page:

  Let me know if you have any questions!

  Hey rootjosh.
  Pardon the delay, but I am at a complete lost with this. Where is my “domain registrar’s” site? I mistakenly switched “Themes” and got hooked up with guys. I have had a history of “hackers” closing down my site. Is this the same problem? Please Help…. Bro Bob

  So, just to clarify, are you trying to point brotherbobonline.com to brobobonline.wordpress.com?

  Yes, But I would also like to see “brobobonline.wordpress.com” when I click on it. No one is able to do that. Can you?

  So, if someone enters brotherbobonline.com URL into their web browser, you would like them sent to brobobonline.wordpress.com and also have the URL display as brobobonline.wordpress.com?

  I can do that for you, but most people prefer to have their custom domain (brotherbobonline.com in your case) display instead of the _______.wordpress.com domain. The idea being that the custom domain is more “professional” looking and is an easier way to make a consistant easy to remember address.

  But it is absolutely up to you.

  But aside from my above post, here’s what you need to do get your domain pointing to your WordPress.com site:

  It looks like your brotherbobonline.com is not pointing to WordPress.com name servers yet:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-helper/?host=brotherbobonline.com

  Please go to your domain registrar’s site and log into the control panel. You will need to update the name servers as below:

  NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

  Hey rootjosh; Thank you, my Man… Everything appears to operating correctly. I, inadvertently pointed to the wrong domain. (brotherbobonline.com) It is now pointing at (brobobonline.wordpress.com)

  Now if anyone clicks on (brotherbobonline.com) they should go directly to (brobobonline.wordpress.com) “This is what I’m talking about!”

  Many Thanks, Again Bro Bob
