  That domain has only been registered today, https://www.whois.com/whois/caiobella.us. It can take up to 48 hours to propagate.

  What is Propagation and How Long Does it Take? Name server changes usually take 24 to 48 hours to fully start working. This period, called propagation, is the projected length of time it takes for root name servers and cache records across the entire web to be updated with your website’s DNS information.

  Hi there,

  What exactly are you trying to do?

  If you’re trying to transfer that domain to us, it won’t work, as new domains cannot be transferred to another registrar for 60 days after registration, and additionally WordPress.com is not an accredited registrar for .us domains.

  If you want to use that domain with your WordPress.com site, you can connect it using our domain mapping option instead, but will have to stay registered at your current domain provider.
