  Hi, I purchased a blog tonight, along with the .org address, which I bough on go daddy. It then sent me to a page to map it. That domain is not up yet, but I wanted to start the blog. I wanted to send people to the blog by just typing in my blog name and .org. Is there a way to do this? Did I purchase the right service for this? I tried to follow instructions got confused…

  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=marathonology.org

  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:
