  Hi @momentumwny –

  You will have to purchase a custom domain in order to drop the .wordpress from your current domain. You do not need to upgrade your plan to Premium or Business, you can stay on the free plan and still use the custom domain.

  Custom Domains are discussed here:

  Go here to register your custom domain:

  Let me know if you have any more questions.
