  Hello

  When you create a WordPress.com website, it’s already hosted on WordPress regardless of the plan you’re on.

  However, with different plans you get different hosting options – for example, the your storage allowance varies. See here for details on that and more differences between plans: https://wordpress.com/pricing/

  Your domain includes WordPress.com when you’re on a free plan. To change that you need to:

  1. Buy a paid plan and get a domain through WordPress
  2. Map a custom domain if you already own one

  All you need to know about domains is here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/

  Hope this helps

  You can use either one of the options I have mentioned above, you don’t have to do both.

  Apologies for the confusion.
