    Our domain is registered elsewhere with email hosted elsewhere. We need to point just the website address to our worpress.com website. However, everything I’ve read asks you to point our DNS to wordpress.com. Because of email and other reasons, we can’t do that. Is there a way to point our website domain to our wordpress.com blog without transferring DNS to worpress.com? Thanks in advance.

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

    The best way to map a domain to a WordPress.com blog is to set your domain’s nameservers to the following values:

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

    However, if your registrar requires that you create A records, please note that our IPs change over time. Because of this, your domain might stop working at some point in the future. If that happens, please get in touch with us to find out the most current IPs and then update your A records accordingly.

    If you still want to go ahead and map your domain using A records, please be sure to create at least two, pointing to two different IPs from the list below:

    76.74.254.123
    76.74.254.120
    66.155.9.238
    192.0.80.250
    192.0.81.250
    66.155.11.238
