  I already have a domain hosted on godaddy example http://www.mydomain.com. I already bought a mapping domain on wordpress and it is quite painful to make it work as subdomain =>
  blog.mydomain.com

  I cancelled my purchase of domain mapping.

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

  I have flagged this for the staff to help – however I don’t thing “ww.mydomain.com.” is real – the staff will need the correct domain name and exactly where on your existing site you want to place your blog here to give you accurate help

  Hi @faustoalemao!

  I’m being redirected to your WordPress.com site when visiting blog.4linked.com. Were you able to add your CNAME through GoDaddy? If so, great!

  It can take some time for changes to domain to propagate throughout the web, which may explain any delay in being able to view the site on your end. If you’re still not being correctly redirected then please try to clear your browser’s cache.

  We’re right here if any extra questions come up too.
