  When l try to get into my blog through, thecolourproject.wordpress.com or press view on my blog display they both come up with an error 404.
  This has happened for about 24 hrs, and doesn’t seem to be resolving itself.
  I have had other people try to connect to my site for me and they can not get through either.
  Your help would be greatly appreciated.

  Hi Nellie, it looks like your domain thecolourproject.com, isn’t currently pointing to your WordPress.com site – it’s pointed to GoDaddy hosting.

  In order to finish mapping it to your WordPress.com site, you’ll need to log into your domain registration control panel at GoDaddy and update the name servers to:

  ns1.wordpress.com
  ns2.wordpress.com
  ns3.wordpress.com

  Please be sure to first read our guide to mapping an existing domain – especially the heads-up about any email accounts you may have on the domain.

  Just let me know if you need further help.

  Hi Kathryn,
  The man who set up that domain for me is now very sick, so l feel it would be imposing to ask him the details.
  I have tried to make thecolourproject. WordPress.com my primary domain by adding it into the box on the domain page.
  This so far does not seemed to have helped.
  Sorry, this blog is a big step for me in terms of computer knowledge. Thought l was doing ok, but not so smart after all!
  Thanks for your help
  Nellie
