    My wordpress website, http://biglensfastshutter.com is down.
    I can access the admin panel but the blog itself is completely down.
    Just to update and I want to let you know that I can:
    -access the stats and dashboard.
    -have bought the domain until February 2014.

    Everything was working fine until few hours ago and haven't changed anything in the past 24 hours.
    Will someone please let me know what I can do to rectify the situation?

    I thank you (a lot) in advance.

    The blog I need help with is biglensfastshutter.com.

    Although biglensfastshutter.com has been registered, it is not using WordPress.com nameservers.

    Go here http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-helper/ and enter the domain name and click. Then follow the instructions provided there.

    Thanks for the help.
    As instructed, I changed the domain nameservers at Hover.com to ns1.wordpress.com and so on.
    I went again to the domain helper link you gave me and it came back with the following:

    ; <<>> DiG 9.7.3 <<>> NS biglensfastshutter.com

    Everything seems correct, but the site is still not working. :(

    Do I have to do something with the custom DNS record?

    it can take 24 to 72 hours for changes to reach the far corners of the internet once you get everything set correctly - changes usually start in a few hours but visiting might be erratic during that period

    Of course it's not found. It's a brand new blog with only one post. Search engines index sites they think people will want to find, and the more posts you have that are original and easily indexed, ie text-heavy, the sooner they will list you.

    Blog more, basically. Blog more and wait.
