  Hi ,

  I need urgent Help. I started Blogging 6 months back @ http://www.stockssavvy.wordpress.com

  I Bought a Domain today so that i can make my Blog to simply http://www.stockssavvy.com

  I was expecting that my Stockssavvy.wordpress.com will be routed to http://www.stockssavvy.com but to my amaze, it is happening the Other way around i.e. if i type http://www.stockssavvy.com in the address bar, it shows me Stockssavvy.wordpress.com

  Please let me know how to resolve this issue…
  Thanks & Regards,
  Rajesh

  Resolves fine for me – it can take 24 to 72 hours for everything to settle down while the changes work to the far corners of the internet: http://www.whatsmydns.net/#NS/stockssavvy.com

  there are Caching issues and such that take a while to work out –

  When I type http://stockssavvy.wordpress.com/ into my browser bar it shows that blog, but redirects to http://stockssavvy.com/ just as it should. What auxclass says is true, it can take a while for it to propagate through all the internet name servers and stabilize. Typically in 24 hours or less, but sometimes longer. There is nothing that can be done to speed that up as it is not in your or wordpress’s hands.

  Also, there is no WWW in either of your URLs. They are:

  http://stockssavvy.wordpress.com/
  http://stockssavvy.com/
