  Hi there,

  I just purchased the domain mapping option for my blog (previously at http://psymin1.wordpress.com, not at http://cinefessions.com). I am having a problem, and it’s scaring me a little bit. Whenever I go to either URL listed above, it takes me to a HostGator Web Hosting page (where I purchased my domain), and nothing else. Whenever I attempt to visit a post of my blog, it gives me a 404 error with the HostGator logo.

  Did I break my website, or is this fixable? Do I just need to wait a few hours for it to fix itself?

  Thanks a lot for your help.

  You need to wait. It’s working fine for me in Vancouver.

  Can anyone else confirm it is working for them? I’m still not seeing anything besides a HostGator page. Thanks, raincoaster, for your info, though.
