  I currently have a web blog with wordpress.com: holyislandarts.wordpress.com, if I purchase this as a domain to have custom domain: holyislandarts.com, does this mean that I can then use this with web host ‘blue host’ to host with wordpress.org so that I can access woocommerce.
  In other words custom domain paid via wordpress.com (upgrade) to use web host ‘bluehost’ to then use wordpress.org to have shop via woocommerce.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi thepoetsofholyisland,

  You can use WordPress.org after having purchased your domain on WordPress.com.
  You still need to move it to another hosting platform though.

  Please refer to the following support page: https://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-to-a-self-hosted-wordpress-site/

  Happy blogging!
