  Hi everyone! It is my first time starting a blog. So, I am trying to create my blog with a domain I’ve already purchased; however, I am stuck on a page showing ‘Awesome! Give us one minute and we’ll move right along.’ after I inputted the domain. Has anyone encountered this before? Thank you so much!

  Hi –

  No problem! Since you already own the domain we need to get the domain mapping set up which will point the domain to our service.

  Step 1 : pick out which plan is best for your idea and budget. Those are at https://wordpress.com/pricing/

  Step 2 : go to My Sites – Domains – Add – Map it and add the domain.

  Step 3 : get your domain registrar to update the name servers and point the domain to us. That is step 2 on this guide:
