    Sounds like your domain name is resolving to the wordpress.com servers. You will need to change that so they resolve to your bluehost account. I’ve never purchased a domain name from wordpress.com, so I’m not sure how you would do that…maybe someone else knows.

    A tip…buy your domain names from godaddy.com in the future…good value and you will have complete control via a domain name control panel.

    I thought i have to transfer the file to my wordpress (at bluehost) before i point the nameservers to bluehost (my domain name is less than 60 days old)…
    Am i doing it in the right step??

    You can do that, but you can’t login at the address that is still pointing to wordpress.com. Bluehost should have sent you an account login to use before your domain resolves to your account there…you will need to use that until you change your domain to resolve to bluehost, otherwise, you will still be connecting to wordpress.com

    They should have emailed it to you when you created your account and verified it on the phone–if they still do the phone verification step.

    I just checked my email… and yes, i received an email from them with information about my account, like domain name (www.qiqibeauty.com) , username and password (that i created when i registered with bluehost), temporary web address, temporary FTP address, name servers and email server.
    How should i use these information for my wordpress???

    You will need to use the temporary address until you change your domain name to resolve to your bluehost account.

    yeah…i have to use temporary address…
    i just sent a message to Bluehost, and they helped me to point the wordpress to my temporary address before i change my nameservers to bluehost…
    thanks for your help, Figaro…
