catrymer on "mapping a domain"

Hi there,

Right now when I access your beautyandsomebeef.com domain I reach your WordPress.com site. It sounds like you might be trying to set up a new self-hosted WordPress.org site.

Just to clear up any confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different entities. At WordPress.com we host your site for you, and provide themes from the themes library for you to choose from. With WordPress.org you self host your site, and are able to upload new themes that you purchase. You can read more about the difference between the two at:

It sounds like you are trying to move your domain from a WordPress.com site to a WordPress.org site. Is that correct? If so, you will need to update the nameservers through GoDaddy to point to your new site. We have more information to help you move your site at:

Does that answer your question or have I misunderstood what you are trying to do?

Best!
