  That’s not a free hosted WordPress.com blog. You are posting to the wrong support forum. We cannot help you here as WordPress.com and WordPress.org are completely separate.

  This is the correct forum for your software http://wordpress.ORG/support/ If you have not registered a WordPress.org username account yet you can do so on the top right hand corner of the page I just linked to so you can post to those support forums.

  Did you purchase a domain mapping upgrade from WordPress.com so you could domain map from your .wordpress.com blog to your existing domain? http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/

  If you did then note that it can take between 24 – 72 hours for a domain name chnage to propagate throughout the internet. If you did not purchase the upgrade then we can’t help you here at all.

  Hi there – ou’ll need to update your name servers to point to WordPress to get your domain mapping working, since they’re currently still pointing to another host:

  NS51.1AND1.COM
  NS52.1AND1.COM

  These are the WordPress.com name servers:

  ns1.wordpress.com
  ns2.wordpress.com
  ns3.wordpress.com

  If you have any emails set up on that domain please read the warnings and instructions here before you update your nameservers, to ensure that your email continues working:
