  The reason you paid to domain map from your root blog here http://potterplotters.wordpress.com/ to your new domain http://potterplotters.com/ was to ensure that when visitors used the old URL for the any posts or the front page of the root blog they would be seamlessly redirected to the new domain. I have visited your site several times now and this redirection is working.

  It’s natural for it to take different lengths of time to be reachable from different places on the internet. How long ago did you make this change? Earlier today.

  Yes it was now yesterday around noon and I visit and it still is at Godaddy? Is this only for me. I guess I have to wait another 24 hours. And if I type in Potterplotters.com it will go to my potterplotters.wordpress.com like a meant correct?

  It can take a couple of days to settle down. Right now it works, and really quickly, for me in North America. I would expect this to be solved by this time tomorrow. You don’t need to do anything.
