  Can I buy a URL through namecheap.com and use it for my WordPress blog? Does WordPress charge anything for that?

  Yes a paid plan is required to map a domain you’ve purchased elsewhere to a WordPress.com site.

  PS: You could register a custom domain (included free for the first year) right here at WordPress.com with a paid plan.
