Why is my site not live?

  I’ve got to be doing something wrong, I changed the DNS Settings at GoDaddy to the NS1.WORDPRESS.COM, NS2.WORDPRESS.COM and NS3.WORDPRESS.COM like it said to in the email I received, although there was no way to remove the original ones that were there, they just moved down the list.
  I’ve created multiple widgets, 4 pages, and 11 posts – published it all – yet nothing is live.

  Did you follow these steps – https://en.support.wordpress.com/map-existing-domain/? If so, then the next best thing is to contact GoDaddy support and ensure the settings are correct on their side.

  I’ve gotten it fixed now. Turns out I placed the code information in the wrong place at GoDaddy, a simple call to their 24 hour support and they had it fixed in no time. The site went live before I was even off the phone with them! The gentleman even told me that it happens more times than not and he called it job security! I’m just thrilled that NWABacksTheBlue.com is live now!
