  Hello,

  If you already own a domain you can ‘map’ to to your WordPress.com site using Domain Mapping:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/map-existing-domain/

  You will need an upgraded WordPress.com plan, such as the Personal plan. Each paid plan includes a free domain credit which you can use to map a domain you already own (or register a new one).

  Let me know if you have any questions!
