    I have the standard .wordpress.com website URL however I would like to create a domain URL. The standard is .com. Is there an option for it to be .co.za at the end without using an external server?

    If so, please provide me with steps in order to do so :)

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

    Hi there. You cannot currently get the .co.za URL via wordpress, so you’ll first have to register the URL you want through another web registrar and then map it to your free wordpress.com domain. Instructions on mapping here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/

    Just to be clear, your URL will be registered elsewhere, but your blog will still be at wordpress.com, i.e. not self-hosted. But you will be responsible for renewing your domain annually when it expires, wordpress will not do it automatically for you.
