  Hi there!

  All .wordpress.com domains are only for sites hosted on WordPress.com, and only with WordPress.com.

  Please reply here, if I didn’t understand your question, or need more help.

  Cheers :)

  Hi there,

  To use WordPress with another host you’ll need to purchase a custom domain, either directly from that host, or from another domain provider.

  Your free *.wordpress.com address is a subdomain of the WordPress.com domain, which belongs to us. That subdomain can only be pointed to our servers.
