  Having paid for my domain name upgrade – I changed the name servers to NS1.wordpress.com and NS2.wordpress.com and all was fine. The site worked from the domain name and then suddenly my domain name does not point to my blog – error message says can’t connect to the server “ellismugridge.co.uk”. what has happened and how do I fix it.
  Blog url: http://ellismugridge.wordpress.com/

  Please don’t worry, I’ve checked your blog and http://ellismugridge.co.uk/ is working correctly. Basically, when you first map a domain name it can take up to 72 hours for the DNS to propagate fully, during which time the domain may either be intermittent or not visible.

  Let us know if we can be of any more help!
