I set up the above blog this morning, then purchased http://juno-wedding.com through WordPress, followed all the instructions, mapped it to the blog and selected the new one as the primary url, but it simply doesn't seem to work - I just get a page not found error.
Any suggestions? Is there usually some sort of delay before newly purchased domains are up and running?
Any assistance most gratefully appreciated.
The blog I need help with is junoweddings.wordpress.com.
I'm so sorry, I just realised I made a typo in my question.
My newly purchased domain is actually http://juno-weddings.com
Thanks!
It can take 24-72 hours for a new domain to make its way through the internet domain name servers although it typically takes 24 hours or less. This isn't something that is anyone's control. It simply takes time for that to happen.
ARRGGH! So sorry - it is now working so must have just been a delay in getting the new one ready to go.
Sorry for wasting your time even reading this!
The thing to remember is that it could be intermittent for 24 hours or so, so if you go to your new domain and it has disappeared, you will know why.
