  It can take 24 to 72 hours for changes to reach the far corners of the internet – due to caching issues you will be the last one to see the changes.

  You need to change the primary blog back to your mapped domain name.

  Change your primary blog name to your custom domain name then take a long walk – your caddieworld.me. sends me to your WordPress.COM blog so you just need to fix the primary – until the name server changes migrate to the far corners of the internet you will have erratic results
