  My name is Rebecca!
  I am new to blogging!
  I decided to get my own domain to help get the name out there!
  However, I am running into some problems…
  they are asking me from some code verification and some new password etc.
  When I try to look up my blog on google it shows the wordpress url and not the .org one.. why is this so? I want to be known by the .org site!
  Do I also get any other benefits from having a domain name with wordpress.com?

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

  Okay. When you go to http://puglover.org it maps to a wordpress.com blog. So it looks like you’ve paid for domain mapping and it’s working.

  It takes Google up to six weeks to index a new URL. Be patient.
