  Hello:

  I purchased mapping in order to map my blog to my domain which is hosted by wix.com. Wix is asking that wordpress either give them the ip address or use the name servers that are already on my wix account.

  My website has been down for a few days due to the issues of mapping both domains.
  Please help me.

  Thank you,

  Brittany,

  Just so I’m clear on what you’re trying to do here, do you want to have visitors to writingstrategics4u.com go to your Wix site?

  If so, it seems that you have your name servers already pointed to the ones Wix provides, so you’re good there. When I go to writingstrategics4u.com however, I see this:

  So I think you’ll need to follow those steps on Wix first before your domain (writingstrategics4u.com) will show visitors your Wix site.

  If that’s what you want to do, the domain mapping upgrade you purchased on WordPress.com will not actually be in use, since your domain will in fact be mapped to Wix. If you’d like, you can go ahead and cancel that upgrade at this link:

  https://writingstrategics4u.wordpress.com/wp-admin/paid-upgrades.php?page=my-upgrades

  To redirect visitors from writingstrategics4u.wordpress.com to your Wix site at writingstrategics4u.com, you will actually need the Site Redirect upgrade. You can set it up by following the instruction here:

  Site Redirect

  Let us know if you need any help with the process. Thanks! :)
