Why can't I access my blog now that I've changed my domain to .com?
-
I changed my domain from http://www.missingbacon.wordpress to http://www.missingbacon.com, but now when I select “Visit Site” for Missing Bacon it says it can’t access the page. Why?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

http://missingbacon.com/ appears to be working properly. Here’s what I can see: https://cloudup.com/cu5Eyw_SW6c
When a domain is registered or altered, there is a process called propagation, where information about the domain name is passed to internet service providers all over the world. This process can take up to 72 hours (though usually much less). During that time, you may also receive a warning message in your browser about “redirect errors”. Unfortunately, we have no control over this as it all depends on how often your internet service provider updates their records. Please rest assured that everything is proceeding normally with your domain.
You can continue to update your site while your custom domain propagates, by going directly to your Dashboard, here:
https://missingbacon.wordpress.com/wp-admin/
If you still have trouble viewing the site after 72 hours have passed, please try clearing your browser’s cache:
If that doesn’t work, try clearing your local DNS cache:
Please let me know if you have any more questions.
