  I was setting up domain website Jade Vogler Healthee Living with website address of http://jadevoglerhealtheeliving.com & was prepared to purchase this for A$21 per year however before I proceeded to payment, I noticed the site coming up as http://jadevoglerhealtheeliving.wordpress.com. I do not wish to have wordpress in my domain site/name. How may I change this so I can finalise. Thankyou.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  There is no domain mapping upgrade for jadevoglerhealtheeliving.com. If you would like to use this domain you will first need to set up domain mapping.

  In order to map to a domain one must have an underlying .wordpress.com subdomain blog to map from. If you have registered a .wordpress.com blog you log in under the exact same username account that registered the blog and purchase a domain name by purchasing an annually renewable domain mapping upgrade for the blog. http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/
  If you already own that domain name see here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/

  Dashboard > Store > My Upgrades is where you do the primary blog set up knowing it can take between 24 – 72 hours for domain name propagation to take place throughout the internet. You can view the DNS changes here > http://www.whatsmydns.net/ What’s important during that stage is to be patient.
