  I just paid $13 for a domain name I purchased from GoDaddy to be mapped to my blog. It says my DNS is not working properly when I tried to use the domain name (www.thetruthofitall.co.uk) I am sorry but I do not know what this means. Is there something I need to do to get this problem sorted out. Please could you help asap. Thank you.

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

  It looks like your domain is not pointing to WordPress.com name servers yet:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-helper/?host=thetruthofitall.co.uk

  Please go to your domain registrar’s site and log into the control panel. You will need to update the name servers as below:

  NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

  For more information, please visit the help documentation provided by the registrar and our support page:

  Let me know if you have any questions!

  Hi ,

  Thank you very much … yes that worked .. almost.

  I have just written another page besides the home page, but now it seems as if the two pages are in a different place. The first blog written under the wordpress address is still there even though I made the new domain name my primary one. So now it appears that my first blog is contained on one website and the second page “about us” is on a very similiar looking website under the new domain name.. how did they separate?
