  You also need to change the domain name servers (DNS) of your domain to WordPress.com’s domain name servers.

  Here are the instructions on how and what to change your domain’s DNS to: https://en.support.wordpress.com/map-existing-domain/#2-ask-your-domain-provider-to-update-your-dns-settings

  I did what you asked but it did not do it because it’s a .in domain. I have already paid the money. What’s to be done now?

  Hello momsview –

  The changes need to be done on the registrar’s side. All is setup correctly on this side.

  What’s happing is that your domain is not pointing to WordPress.com name servers. You can view the current name servers on this page:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-helper/?host=momsview.in

  You’ll need to update the name servers with your domain registrar. This article explains how:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/

  The name servers for WordPress.com are:

  NS1.WORDPRESS.COM

  NS2.WORDPRESS.COM

  NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

  If you’re not sure how to change them, please contact your registrar for assistance.

  Once you have updated the name servers, it may take up to 48 hours for the domain to be pointed to your WordPress.com site.
