  Hi,

  I am trying to map blog.giftonline.us to thegiftonline.wordpress.com. In my DNS provider, I have put CNAME blog pointing to thegiftonline.wordpress.com, and i have purchased blog.giftonline.us (and giftonline.us, for which I will need a refund I think), but wordpress is not showing my blog. I have refreshed, cleared cache, etc. Any suggestions?

  Thanks.

  Eva Balogh

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

  Hi Eva!

  Just visited http://blog.giftonline.us/ and your WordPress.com site properly appeared:

  

  If you’re still not seeing it try clearing your browser cache then reload the site.

  All DNS changes (like that CNAME record) take time to propagate, sometimes up to 72 hours, but this one appears to be setup correctly. :)

  I removed the domain mapping for giftonline.us and issued a refund.

  Let me know if I can help with anything else! :)
