  Hi. I have used blue host to swap from wordpress.com to wordpress.org, and the install was successful. However I can’t seem to be able to blog from .org, everything looks just the same as pre install. Is there something I have done wrong? I tried to export / import yesterday, but theres still the same site as before.

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

  Hi there,

  There is indeed one more thing which you’ll need to do in order to complete the process (assuming you’re using the same domain name, eventyrelin.com).

  You will still need to point your nameservers over to your new hosting. Unfortunately I don’t know specifically which nameservers BlueHost would prefer you to use, they would have that information for you. But once you have the nameservers from them, you just need to follow the instructions we’ve laid out here:

  Change a Domain’s Name Servers

  It takes a couple of hours or so for this change to go through, after which time you should be good to go!

  Let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
