  I have my own domain Gossamer-moon.com and have instructed the registrar to change the DNS as directed in the WordPress instructions. That has been done. I also paid the $12 annual upgrade fee.
  However,when I try to see my new domain it doesn’t show up. I have set gossamer-moon.com as my primary blog but I am not seeing it any where.
  What have I not done or done right?
  Blog url: http://deaconsplace.wordpress.com/

  http://gossamer-moon.com/ appears to be working properly.

  It can take domain changes up to 72 hours (though usually much less) to propagate to your ISP. Unfortunately, we have no control over this as it all depends on how often your ISP refreshes their DNS cache.

  Please let us know if you have any more questions!

  Thanks
  I got an email that the changes had been made by GoDaddy this morning

  Excellent, now it can take those up to 72 hours to propagate to your ISP.

  I guess I’m looking for a new blog that I’m not seeing. When I click on the link for Gossamer-Moon, it takes me to DeaconsPlace. Is that just a timing issue or is that what I should expect in the future?
  Thanks for your help

  Well, that is the blog that you mapped the domain to.

  A domain needs to be mapped to a WordPress.com blog.

  If you want it on a new blog, create another blog through https://en.wordpress.com/signup/ while logged in and let me know the new blog’s URL so I can move the domain.
