Do I need a Hosting Service to Forward my Domain Name?
-
I currently purchased a Domain Name without any hosting from GoDaddy, I initially already had my WordPress blog and wanted to connect it together. I followed the procedures on Forwarding it and even purchased the “Domain Mapped to WordPress.com”. Do I need to register with a server to be able to Map it? If I do need the server, do I still need the “Domain Map feature”?
Thanks in Advance, I couldn’t find a similar question.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

OK – some steps & such
michaelyrodriguez.com. – registered with Godaddy – is fine
michaelyrodriguez.com. – domain forwarded at Godaddy to your blog here – very bad – please turn off the domain forwarding
Name servers set to WordPress.COM – done & good – don’t changed
It looks like you have followed most of these instructions – good

However your primary domain is not set correctly – needs to be set to michaelyrodriguez.com.
