  Hi there,

  It is not possible to transfer domains in to WordPress.com, but your site at http://www.how2momblog.com/ is not hosted with us in any case, so there is no reason to want to transfer your domain to us – we have no control at all over your primary domain, or your site for that matter.

  how2momblog.com is hosted with Bluehost, which means you are using the self-hosted WordPress.org software. The correct process for changing your primary domain on that version of WordPress can be found here:

  Please don’t just change the domain in Settings, as that will only break your site. Please contact Bluehost support if you need any help with transferring the domain to them or with setting it to your primary domain.
