  I have purchased a domain name through GoDaddy (liondancejourney.com). I have paid $12 to map the wordpress URL (liondancejourney.wordpress.com) to the new URL. Why does “.wordpress” still appear in the domain name URL in the browser’s address bar?
  Blog url: http://liondancejourney.wordpress.com/

  You’re close! There’s just one more step. Go to Upgrades → Domains, select liondancejourney.com, and click the Update Primary Domain button.
