  Hi there,

  Sure! You’re actually all set up on this end. The only thing you need to do is change your nameservers to WordPress.com’s. To do that, you’ll need to follow GoDaddy.com’s instructions for changing nameservers, I went online to find:

  http://support.godaddy.com/help/article/664/setting-nameservers-for-your-domain-names

  And the nameservers you need to put in are right here:

  NS1.WORDPRESS.COM

  NS2.WORDPRESS.COM

  NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

  After you put in those nameservers, changes can take between 1 and 72 hours to fully propagate, so you’ll need to be patient. But eventually your domain will pull up your WordPress.com site!
