    Hi there!

    I noticed you purchased a domain without any WordPress.com plans. A WordPress.com plan is required to be able to set a custom domain as the primary address on your site.

    Please use the button below to upgrade to a WordPress.com plan. If you’re not sure which plan is best for you, I can help! Let me know about your site goals, and I’ll suggest a plan for you. You may also choose the WordPress.com Starter plan to get started. You can always upgrade to a higher plan if you need more features. :)

If you upgrade to a yearly plan, we’ll refund the domain registration fee so that you can get the domain free for the first year. Please let us know after upgrading, and we’ll take care of the rest. :)

    Also, after upgrading, you can follow the instructions here to set your domain as the primary address on your site:
