  I want to change the domain I have mapped. I currently have “thelaughingbear.net” mapped to my blog as part of my premium upgrade. I have acquired a different domain name (laughingbearcomedy.com) that I would prefer to use instead. Can I swap them out? How should I proceed. Thanks!

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

  I’ve made that switch for you.

  Let me know if everything is working correctly.

  Thanks — how long does it take before the change will show up?

  I am seeing laughingbearcomedy.com point correctly to your WordPress.com site.

  It can take 24-48 hours for domain/DNS changes to propagate throughout the internet. It typically happens faster than that, but it really depends on your ISPs update frequency. If you are still not seeing the correct site appear after 48 hours has elapsed, please contact me again.

  Also, do let me know if you have further questions or if anything is unclear.
