  Put this code in your index file

  <script type=”text/javascript”>
  <!–
  window.location = “http://www.yourwordpress.com/”
  //–>
  </script>

  The reply above doesn’t apply to wp.COM blogs.

  Most domain registrars support domain forwarding, so you can simply go into your domain settings and tell it where you want the domain to point.

  Also, if you purchased domain hosting, then it might make more sense to install WordPress.org on your own server and transfer your current entries and comments to it. You’ll have more control over content, layout, and placement of ads that way.

  You can also use the Domain Mapping Upgrade (which will mask all of your blog’s URLs and not simply redirect them). See http://support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/ for more information.

  You’re welcome! I’m hoping to do that one day with my own blog.
