  I own a domain name (.space) do I have to get external hosting before I can migrate my wordpress blog to this domain or can wordpress act as my host?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You can map your .space domain to your WordPress.com blog.

  Hi . Thanx I checked that but does it then mean that I don’t require an external additional host like afrihost? And if so would I have to pay additional charges to upgrade my site to something else with the blog only a component of that site ?

  WordPress.com will act as your host and provide space. Check out this page for the available plans.

  You will still need to maintain the domain registration with your existing registrar, which registered the .space domain name for you.
