  Hi qweensylvia,

  A CNAME record will only be needed if you want to map a subdomain (like blog.yourgroovydomain.com) to WordPress.com:

  If you want to map the root domain (like yourgroovydomain.com), these instructions these are the correct steps to follow:

  If you aren’t sure, just let me know which domain you want to use and I’ll point you in the right direction :)
