  Hi there, it can take up to 72 hours before changes in DNS distribute throughout the internet. Usually it’s much faster.

  The good news is that I currently see your above domain on a HostGator site. If you are still seeing your WordPressdotcom site, you might need to flush your browser’s cache and cookies, but patience is the key.
