What is the IP address for my blog?
-
I want to link my blog hitchupp.wordpress.com to my existing subdomain blog.hitchupp.com which I created on godaddy. In order for the subdomain to work correctly I have to point it to an IP address under A (host). What is the IP address that it should point to? Where can I find it? How do I make my blog run on my subdomain?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there!
You should be able to set up a CNAME for blog.hitchupp.com using this format:
blog.hitchupp.com. IN CNAME hitchupp.wordpress.com.
You can read more about this here:

Let me know if I can help further!

I have already set up the subdomain blog.hitchupp.com at godaddy. And I also paid for mapping the wordpress blog to the subdomain. However, when I set blog.hitchupp.com as my primary address for the blog, it still shows me the godaddy landing page when I go the link, instead of the wordpress blog.
I think I need to change the IP for blog.hitchupp.com on godaddy to point it to wordpress.
I don’t know where to change the CNAME and DNS settings from. I get no option to Edit my domain in wordpress under Store > My domains -
Hi there!
I just visited blog.hitchupp.com and was directed to your WordPress.com website.
Domain changes usually take several hours to fully take effect (and theoretically can take up to 72 hours). I’d recommend checking. You can also try clearing your browser’s cache and cookies. Instructions can be found here:
If it’s still not working, simply reply back and let me know. I’m happy to investigate further.
