  Good day to you,

  I have a question, which I cant find an answer to in the FAQ etc.
  I had a blog via Webnode, but moved it to WordPress now. I would like to use the same domain as I had before and asked for the moving code (sorry if this isnt the correct English word for it). What do I now need to do to get my domain working for the worpress blog?

  Hope you can help.

  Kind regards,

  Gea Simons

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

  Hi Gea,

  It isn’t possible to transfer your domain’s registration to WordPress.com, so you will need to keep the domain registered somewhere else. (You can either keep it registered where you purchased the domain, or you can move it to a different domain registrar.)

  Then, you can point or “map” your domain to your WordPress.com site. You can do that from the Domains page, using the button “Map an Existing Domain.”

  We also have a full guide to Map an Existing Domain with more details about that process.

  Please let me know if you have any questions about that. :)
