  I paid WordPress for redirecting my website to my domain 5 days ago and I still cannot see my website on the internet. What’s up with that?!

  Hi there,

  Your WordPress.com site has a site redirect upgrade, which means that visitors who enter the address http://goodvibrationspensacola.wordpress.com/ in their web browser are redirected to your domain at http://goodvibrationspensacola.com/ . I checked your site redirect setup, and it is working properly.

  Your domain goodvibrationspensacola.com is registered and hosted at GoDaddy. If your site is not appearing at that address, you may need to contact GoDaddy support for additional help getting your site set up at that address.

  If you would like to use your domain goodvibrationspensacola.com with your WordPress.com site (so that visitors who go to goodvibrationspensacola.com see your site here at WordPress.com), you will need a domain mapping upgrade rather than a site redirect upgrade. You can learn more about domain mapping here: Map an Existing Domain

  If you have any questions about this, please let me know. If you decide to cancel your site redirect upgrade and use a domain mapping upgrade instead, I would be happy to help you with that.

  We have done the Site Redirect with WordPress.
  We have done the setup with GoDaddy and they say everything is correct with them.

  Can you tell me if what we did is correct with WordPress?

  Our goal is for people to type in our domain name of GoodVibrationsPensacola.com and it take ’em to our blog with WordPress at GoodVibrationsPensacola.wordpress.com.

  If we wanted to, does WordPress offer phone support?

  Thank you.

  I see that you switched from a Site Redirect to Domain Mapping for your domain goodvibrationspensacola.com. Since you want people who type in goodvibrationspensacola.com to see your blog at goodvibrationspensacola.wordpress.com, this is the correct setup and everything looks good on this end.

  When I type in your domain goodvibrationspensacola.com, I see your blog so you’re all set! If it doesn’t look right to you yet, please give it another day or two. It can take up to 72 hours for domain changes like this to take full effect everywhere, but rest assured that it is set up properly.

  WordPress.com does not offer phone support, but we are happy to provide direct support via our Support Contact Page. If you have any other questions or concerns, please let me know! :)
