Hi,
I have made a blog but need help with a domain name.
I currently have a domain name with 1 and 1, and want to use it for my wordpress blog. Can some one tell me how I do this?

I have looked on the various support pages but just get confused.
Please help.

Follow these instructions if you already have a domain that you registered elsewhere, and you want to map that domain to your blog. > Map an existing domain (one you already own) to your WordPress.com blog.

Hi,

Thanks for help.
I may be almost there, upgrading took me through the move and I’ve now updated server settings at 1and1. And am currently waiting for the systems to update. Fingers crossed.

After you make the domain mapping purchase and do the set up it can take between 24 – 72 hours for domain name propagation to take place throughout the internet. You can view the DNS changes here > http://www.whatsmydns.net/
