[resolved] trying to move wordpress.com to wordpress.org/self-hosted blog (3 posts)

    So I was using wordpress.com for my site http://wristband4festivals.com.
    I bought a domain through automatic and had the site up and running. I had some interest from advertisers, so decided to move the site over to wordpress.org - now forgive me for being a n00b, but I haven't the foggiest now as to what's going on....

    I have bought hosting with Just Host, and am pointing the nameservers over to them, I have used the 'one click instillation' but basically just keep getting redirected back to my existing wordpress.com blog!

    What am I doing wrong, what do I need to do next?

    Thanks in advance

    Have you uploaded WordPress to your new host? If so, where did you upload the files to, exactly?

    May need to wait 12-48 hours for nameserver changes to propogate.

    Some one-click installs will 'install' but until the nameserver changes are recognized you may need to wait to use that blog.
