  Hey hi hello!

  Firstly, what WordPress website are you trying to connect to the domain?
  What if any error messages are you encountering?

  Regardless, the instructions here might be helpful to you:
  https://wordpress.com/support/domains/connect-existing-domain/

  Some main takeaways:

  • Linking domains from another provider is known as “domain connection” (or “domain mapping“).
  • Domain connection requires any WordPress.com paid plans.
  • It’s necessary to update the domain’s settings to point to the WordPress.com servers (and afterwards wait perhaps a few hours).
    To do so, see https://wordpress.com/support/domains/connect-existing-domain/#change-your-domains-name-servers

  I hope this helps!
