  hi i have started to make the above site on wordpress.com. i have several domain names that i would like to direct to my new site. i would like one which is the above address as my primary and several secondary domains. will it cost 13 euros for the primary and then 13 euros extra per domain pointing to the primary domain. if thats the case it might be easier for me to just map several sites individually?
  regards

  Each one requires a domain mapping upgrade.

  Also note the prices are in USA dollars ($13) not euros per year.

  Thank you so if I have 5 domains it’s better to make 5 sites?

  What are the extra domain names used for? some people have secondary domains for common spelling errors – you can only have one primary domain (the one visitors see in their browser address bar) – but a secondary domain name can be mapped to send traffic to the main domain name

  depends on what you want to do with the names and the sites – you would not want to have all 5 sites mirrors of each other – bad for search engines and against the terms of service here

  Hi there,

  For each domain you want to use, you will need to purchase a domain mapping upgrade from the Domains page.

  The cost is the same for mapping multiple domains to one site or mapping each one to different sites, so as auxclass mentioned it depends on what you want to use those domain names for. If you want to have multiple domain names that all direct to a single WordPress.com site, it is best to map them all to that site.

  Please let me know if you have any questions about that. :)
