  Domain mapping is $13.-/yr if you want to use your own custom domain name with a blog here – no it is not free

  Hi chiragunadkat78,
  If you own an existing custom domain purchased somewhere else (for example, from GoDaddy or Namecheap), you can “map” that domain to your WordPress.com site.

  Domain mapping is a paid upgrade that costs $13.00 per domain, per year. This fee is unrelated to the amount you pay your registrar for your domain itself. You will need to remember to continue renewing your domain with your existing registrar even after you have mapped it to WordPress.com.

  Here is an article with more info about domain mapping:

  I hope this helps!
