  Yes, this is a common question. You can build your new site here and then wait to connect the domain until everything is ready to go.

  Keep the new site private as to not affect any SEO.

  Our webinars are a great tool for getting started. Check those out at https://wordpress.com/webinars/

  There are 2 options to connect the domain.
  1. mapping: https://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/
  2. transfer: https://en.support.wordpress.com/incoming-domain-transfer/
