  Hi there,

  After looking into your domain, I found that your nameservers have not been updated to WordPress.com nameservers. Please note that there is no way for us to make this change for you because the domain is not registered through us, but with Godaddy. I do not have access to your control panel.

  You can contact Godaddy support and they would be able to make the necessary changes. I did a quick search and found their support page here:

  http://support.godaddy.com/

  Have them update the nameservers to:

  NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

  You can just copy and paste the above to them and they will know what to do. Since Godaddy is the registrar of this domain, they are the only ones who can do this for you.

  After the nameservers have been updated, please note that it can take up to 72 hours for it to propagate. So, please be patient and if your site is still not loading properly, reach out to me and I’d be happy to take a further look!

  Cheers!

  Thank you for your help gracejiyoung all done with the domain name. I wonder if you can help me with another issue im having, I have set up my page as a music page, i would like to add audio tracks to my page but i noticed that i should have started with a wordpress.com/music page to do this the easy way.
  Is there anyway i can switch my page to a music profile so that i can start adding audio. Thanks
  Marie Dance

  Hi Marie,

  You don’t have to switch to a music profile to get the features of a music site. :) I found that you have a SoundCloud account! You can embed a SoundCloud Audio Player on your site through this support guide.

  I’d highly recommend taking a look at this page, and it will specifically state out features for creating a site for your music.

  We also have 12 themes specifically for music that might be worth checking out here.

  Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!
