godaddy domain, wordpress website- need help publishing my site to be viewable
-
I purchased my domain from godaddy.com, already have my wordpress website/blog published but need to have my web address pointed to my domain. I spoke to godaddy and they said they took care of things on their end but said I needed to contact wordpress to finish the steps and enable my website to be viewable.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

The domain I am trying to have my wordpress blog pointed to is http://www.amandawalter.com

Hi there,
The subscription for domain mapping an existing domain is $13.00 per year per blog. And you need to have an underlying .wordpress.com blog URL to domain map from to the domain URL.You must be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog and purchase upgrades for it.
If you would like to use your domain name purchased elsewhere and map from your free hosted wordpress.com blog to it, then you will first need to set up domain mapping by following these steps. http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/
After you make the domain mapping purchase here > Dashboard > Store > My Upgrades and do the primary blog set up 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.
