Domain mapping?

  • Unknown's avatar

    I am completely confused about domain mapping. What is the difference between domain mapping and domain hosting? My domain is currently hosted by GoDaddy. I cant decide if I should keep it there or transfer to WordPress? And I want to make sure that my web address will just be .com not .wordpress.com

    Hi there,

    I am completely confused about domain mapping. What is the difference between domain mapping and domain hosting?

    It seems that you are trying to figure out whether to transfer your domain to WordPress to host your site or to have GoDaddy as your host provider but map your domain to your WordPress.com site.

    The difference between transferring and mapping of domain:

    Since your host provider is GoDaddy and not WordPress, please visit the forum for self-hosted WordPress site for further help:

    This forum is for WordPress hosted sites. The difference between the self-hosted WordPress site and hosted WordPress site:

    WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

    Hope this will help.
