  I registered samanthaschuyler.com at a different registrar than WordPress.com. I now want to make it go to a different site, not WordPress. How do I prevent it from linking back to my WordPress site completely? I’ve changed the settings at the registrar, but it is still linking back to this blog.

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

  It can take up to 72 hours for the DNS changes to propagate throughout the internet and for some reason the site owner is usually the last to see the change.

  FWIW, I do not see your site hosted on WordPress.com, so be patient and clear out your browser cache so you aren’t seeing a cached copy of your site.

  Thanks! I cleared my cache, and now it says “This webpage has a redirect loop.” Is that what you are seeing, too?

  No, I see your site (screenshot) Sorry for the size of the screenshot, but I’m on my netbook this week.
