  I have sep a blog: (email visible only to moderators and staff). I decided to add a domain: sinners.row.com. I know I do not know what I am doing.

  When I search my domain it says it cannot find the server.

  I am frustrated. Can you help me?

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

  Note: It can take between 24 – 72 hours for a domain name change to propagate throughout the internet and your own ISP will probably be the last one to flush their DNS caches. Has 72 hours passed since you purchased domain mapping and set the primary domain?

  What is the domain name you registered?

  sinners.row.com – would be a subdomain of row.com (the period turns it into a subdomain) –

  We need a bit more information to give you accurate help

  That’s just what I was looking at. row.com is some kind of dating site.

  This is what it was about the domain: sinners.row.com:

  The primary domain for your blog is sinners.row.com. The other URLs above will redirect to that domain

  Please be patient while waiting for the domain name propagation to take place throughout the internet.

  Thank you. And when everything takes place, can I or others simply type my primary domain and go to it online?

  Hi,

  I own the domain http://www.spiertzfoto which redirects my wordpress blog bertspiertz.wordpress.com

  I just purchased for $ 13 a subdomain to add to this blog, I called it http://www.spiertzfoto.nl.travel

  Somehow this went wrong. The subdomainhas become primary domain of SPIERTZFOTO.wordpress.com which in fact is an address I never use.
  Secondly it isn’t found when I search for spiertfoto.nl.travel. nor SPIERTZFOTO.wordpress.nl

  What I want is to have http://www.spiertzfoto.travel.nl as a subdomain of http://www.spiertzfoto.nl . The last should remain primary domain
