    My original blog was hosted by wordpress.com (celebutardonline.com) and today I transfered it to BlueHost and installed wordpress using the simple scripts installation. However, now when I click on my site it takes me to wordpress.com and says user has deleted their blog (i deleted the wordpress.com one earlier to start a fresh.) Why is this happening and what can i do to get working on wordpress.org. Is it because I initially purchased the domain name from wordpress.com ?? and if so, why have blue host allowed me to pay all that money when it's not been transfered.

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!!

    You need to update your domain's name servers to point to the Bluehost name servers. This document should explain:

    Please note, that Fantastico will install a WordPress blog even though your domain name servers are not correct. But with that said, you still need to fix your name servers.
