zandyring on "Redirecting my WordPress blog"

Hi there,

I logged in as you, and I see that you're redirecting your site to ns1.wix.com, which isn't a site, but is a nameserver instead. Typing this into your URL bar won't take you to your site.

It sounds like Wix gave you two nameservers: ns1.wix.com and ns2.wix.com.

You use nameservers to point your domain to a blog. In order to do that, you log into your domain registrar (which may be WordPress, but isn't necessarily), and update your nameservers. When a domain is pointed at WordPress.com, they are NS1.WORDPRESS.COM, NS2.WORDPRESS.COM, and NS3.WORDPRESS.COM. Other registrars use the same convention - NS1.registrarname.COM, NS2.registrarname.COM, etc.

So I'd be happy to help you, but I don't fully understand what your goal is. Are you going to move your WordPress.com blog to a Wix site and also point your domain to that site? I'd be happy to help you through this process!
