Domain Name Failure
-
I have just upgraded my domain name from willcopestakemedia.wordpress.com to just willcopestakemedia.com. Now the website will not load saying that the link is faulty and my site is down. How can I amend this quickly, it is important that it works asap.

http://willcopestakemedia.com/ appears to be working properly. Here’s what I see: http://d.pr/i/4ZsX/5DRLONJz
When a domain is registered or altered, there is a process called propagation, where information about the domain name is passed to internet service providers all over the world. This process can take up to 72 hours (though usually much less). During that time, you may also receive a warning message in your browser about “redirect errors”. Unfortunately, we have no control over this as it all depends on how often your internet service provider updates their records. Please rest assured that everything is proceeding normally with your domain.
You can continue to update your site while your custom domain propagates, by going directly to your Dashboard, here:
