"Business" Plan Domain Question
-
Hi There!
I have a question about the “Business” Plan at WordPress. I bought a domain name from GoDaddy.com about 6 months ago. I know that I can point my domain to my new WordPress site, but under the “Business” Plan bundle that WordPress offers, it says that “A Custom Domain” is included in the plan. What does this mean?
Does this mean that I need to continue to pay GoDaddy for my domain, and WordPress’s $13/year charge for mapping my domain to WordPress is waived? Or, is free hosting included in WordPress’s “Business” plan and I don’t need to pay GoDaddy OR the $13/year charge?
I’m very confused… please help!
Many Thanks,

“A Custom Domain” is included in the plan
Domain name registration and domain mapping are part of the package.
In your case, you would keep the registration at Godaddy (or other registrar of your choice ) (WordPress.COM does not accept incoming domain name transfers) then you map your domain name to your blog / site here – the domain mapping fee is included in the Business Bundle so you do not need to pay a second $ 13.-
Yes you loose on the $ 5.- domain registration included in the package

Thank you so much!! Just one last question – so when my GoDaddy registration runs out in a few months, can I register my domain with WordPress without any additional fee? Is that part included in the “Business” plan as well?
Thank you so much! I appreciate it!

Sadly no, WordPress.COM is not set up to accept incoming domain name registration transfers, I don’t know what godaddy costs but you could look around and see if you can save a bit of money with another registrar
