  • Hi,

    Your options are:
    1) Map your domain: 
If you prefer to keep your domain at a different provider, you will need an upgraded WordPress.com plan on your site in order to map a domain. Each paid plan comes with a free domain credit you can use to either register a new domain, or either transfer or map one you already own. https://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/

    2) Transfer your domain to WordPress: 
If you would like to use the domain you own on WordPress.com you can transfer it and manage your site and domain all in one place, with no need to manually configure DNS records at another domain provider.
    https://en.support.wordpress.com/incoming-domain-transfer/

    It’s recommended to add domain mapping first, before you transfer. This is because a transfer can take 5-7 days to complete. If you map the domain first, it will start showing your site while the transfer finishes.

    Have a read of the support documents provided and let us know if you need any further assistance :)

    and a hosting from hostgator

    Have you already paid HostGator? Have you already set up a site with them? You need to decide if you want to be here at WordPress.com (by creating another site here and following the instructions provided by @catkiinson) or at HostGator setting up a site with the WordPress.org software (or even one of the other platforms they offer).

    WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org
