having issues with my redirect
-
hi i just purchased helpingfibromyalgia.com under your upgrade / domain. I would like it to be my new web address and have my managingfibromyalgia.wordpress.com redirect to it. When I click on helpingfibromyalgia and make it my “primary url” it doesn’t redirect my old site and I got a broken link webpage from my browser.
I thought it was possible to have my site hosted on wordpress.com but have a url that doesn’t have wordpress in it. Is that correct? and if so, what am i doing wrong?
thanks,
m
Blog url: http://managingfibromyalgia.wordpress.com/ -
http://helpingfibromyalgia.com/ appears to be working properly.
It can take domain changes up to 72 hours (though usually much less) to propagate to your ISP. Unfortunately, we have no control over this as it all depends on how often your ISP refreshes their DNS cache.

thanks for getting back to me so quickly! that’s so odd! it is working.. haha. i don’t know why it wasn’t for me. one more question and please forgive me I am kinda clueless when it comes to this stuff.
do i need to resubmit anything to search engines now that I have a new url or will what I did before be ok?
thanks again!

The old blog URL is now permanently redirected to the new domain, so they’ll catch on soon. You don’t need to do anything.
Please let us know if you have any more questions!
