  Hi there,

  Sure! While you can’t register a .ca domains through us, you can register it elsewhere and just use our domain mapping upgrade to map it to your WordPress.com site.

  You’ll need to update the name servers with your domain registrar. This article explains how:

  The name servers for WordPress.com are:

  • NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
  • NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
  • NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

  If you’re not sure how to change them, please contact your registrar for assistance.

  Once you have updated the name servers, it may take up to 48 hours for the domain to be pointed to your WordPress.com site.
