  Hi there,

  To connect a domain to WordPress.com, you’ll need to purchase any paid plan, which will come with the capability to connect or transfer in the domain you purchased from GoDaddy.

  You can view this article as a reference: https://wordpress.com/support/domains/connect-existing-domain/

  On the other hand, if you are looking to self-host WordPress using another hosting company (not WordPress.com), then please check this tutorial directly from GoDaddy that will instruct you on connecting your domain to your hosting.

  Please note, however, that if you are looking to self-host WordPress and have further questions, you should direct them to either the WordPress.org forums, GoDaddy, or the hosting company you choose to create your WordPress website with, as this forum is meant for people hosting their websites with WordPress.com.

  Here’s a link that goes into detail about the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org: https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/

  I hope this helps points you in the right direction!
