Changing domain hosts

    I’m trying to change my domain name (www.styledbysasha.com) from directing to my WordPress site styledbysashadotcom.wordpress.com to instead direct it to my Blogger blog (my-cupof-tea.blogspot.com.au). I no longer require the information stored on the current styledbysasha.com website as I have transferred it all across, I just want to now use the domain name for the blog instead of what I currently have (all the branding will be changed once this is sorted). Could you please help me?
    I’ve already tried to edit DNS to insert CNAMEs and A references but as I’m not very web-code savvy I don’t know if I’ve done it right or if this is required at all.
    Any help you could offer (in lamens terms) would be greatly appreciated.

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

    Hi there,

    Using your whole domain with another site is actually a bit tricky, because you need to make changes in the domain manager. I went ahead and entered the CNAME and A records for you, so your domain is now pointed at Blogger.

    If you haven’t already, you will need to finish this process by following Step #2 (Update your Blogger settings) on this page: https://support.google.com/blogger/answer/1734119?hl=en&ref_topic=1734115

    It can take a day or two for your new domain settings to take effect everywhere, so don’t be surprised if you don’t see it change right away. If your domain doesn’t start working with Blogger after about 48 hours, please let me know and I can look into it.

    Let me know if you have any questions about that! :)
