  Hi,

  To change the domain to WordPress you will need to purchase a WordPress Plan. Choosing from a Personal plan or higher to use your domain.

  Once you have a plan you can choose to eithertransfer your domain or map your domain to your WordPress site.

  You can learn more about domain transfers and domain mapping at https://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/

  zamudior –

  I’m just going to elaborate a bit on what has already been shared. Go ahead and keep your domain on the active site until your new one at WordPress.com is ready to go. This will cut down any downtime that you or your business may experience.

  Start your new site on WordPress.com https://learn.wordpress.com/ It can stay hidden until the domain gets connected and you’re ready to go live with it. See here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/

  Let us know if you have any other questions.
