  I purchased the $99 bundle – I would like to have the blog name be just moundsviewgirlsgolfteam.com (I bought the domain name on Go Daddy a couple weeks ago). They would prefer not to have wordpress in the name.

  Also when I “googled moundsviewgirlsgolfteam – nothing came up.

  Thank you,
  Maria

  The domain should work now.
