  Regards.

  Hi there!

  I understand you already own the domain that you want to use with your WordPress.com site. No worries! You can add your domain as a Domain Connection to your WordPress.com site. For this, you need a WordPress.com plan.

  With a WordPress.com plan, you will unlock additional features, such as the ability to use your own domain as the primary address, remove ads, and more, depending on the plan you get. Can you tell us a bit about the site you’re building? Are there any specific features you’d like to have on your site? Depending on your needs, we can suggest a plan for you.

  Generally speaking, the WordPress.com Personal plan is a great starting point for using your own domain and removing ads. You can upgrade to a higher plan if you need more features.

  After upgrading, you can follow the steps here to add your domain:

  If you already own a domain name with another provider, you can use that domain with your WordPress.com site. Once you complete the steps below, instead of your site address being something like yourgroovysite.wordpress.com, your site’s address will be something like yourgroovydomain.com. Follow the steps in this guide to keep your domain registered with your current provider and use it to show
