    What currency is the $36 in? I’m guessing the $13 is in USD.

    Yes thats correct then it asks me to pay 36 then another monthly charge afterwards, i havent finished since i dont need anything besides mapping 1 domain is all.

  • Domains are no longer available for purchase or mapping individually. They are included with any of the WordPress.com plans. This change has been made as we work to offer the best combination of value and performance for users while still offering a completely free product for those who do not wish to purchase any upgrades.

    A great way to go if you are not interested in WordPress.com Premium is to look into setting up a self-hosted WordPress.org site through a hosting provider such as Bluehost, GoDaddy, or Pressable.

    WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

    @leakymilky – I’ve tagged this for Staff input as there seems to be a bit of confusion recently about pricing. It would help to know on what screen you see these prices. Thanks.

    In general, in order to use a custom domain (buy or map) here on WordPressdotcom , it requires purchasing one of the upgrade plans. You can see the pricing here: https://wordpress.com/pricing/ or here https://wordpress.com/plans when you are logged in. If you scroll down, that one gives a bit more information.

    Plans are paid annually and need to be renewed annually. If you are mapping a domain, this needs to be done in addition to renewing your domain with your registrar.

    Hope that helps to clarify in the meantime.
