    hello,
    i am building a website for my first marketing client everything was great on this platform, easy to learn. but i have a problem with a domain i am attempting to connect. i purchased the domain from godaddy and when i attempt to connect the domain it keeps telling me i have to wait 55 days, please help me ill be so grateful. i told the client the website would be finished tomorrow.

    best regards,
    Seydi Diop

  • Hi Seydi Diop, no problem. Sounds like the domain is too new to transfer. But you’d be welcome to map it in the meantime:

    First, choose a plan here:

    Next choose to map the domain: https://wordpress.com/domains

    Then point your domain to these name servers:
    ns1.wordpress.com
    ns2.wordpress.com
    ns3.wordpress.com

    If you need to add other DNS settings before you do that, you can:

    Manage Your DNS Records

    Does that help? If not, send more details and we’ll go from there.

    Hello,

    Thank you for getting back to me so quick, is there anyway to do it without paying ? I think the mapping option you gave me i have to pay. I only have the money the client gave me. Is there a way to get bypass that just for this time ? Please

  • Hi Seydi Diop, I just found your new thread about this and merged it into the existing one. If you’ll reply directly to this thread rather than starting a new one, we can help faster :)

    If you don’t want to pay for anything, you’ll need to use a free site. It does not come with domain mapping but will have a free address. When you’re ready to purchase a plan you’ll be able to add the domain as you like.
