  I paid the 18.00 charge to have my address end in “.com”, and the charge has displayed on my bank account, but my address still ends in “wordpress.com”. Has there been some type of error?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Howdy,

  Everything is correct. Your domain name, theurbancocktail.com, is registered to you. When purchasing a new domain, it can take several hours for the new domain’s registration to be effective across the Internet.

  Your site’s older and alternative address of http://theurbancocktail.wordpress.com will always be available if there is an issue with your domain, or times like this where the registration is so new, it may not yet work everywhere.

  You can update which domain is “primary”, e.g. what folks see in their address bars, via the Store->Domains page in your site’s dashboard (link: https://theurbancocktail.wordpress.com/wp-admin/paid-upgrades.php?page=domains ).

  In either case, both domains will take folks to your site.

  If you have any questions or need anything else, please let me know!
