  I purchased a domain name (www.friendsofsapl.ca) via Google Domains and want to use it for our WordPress blog, but there’s no option here to do that. How can I use this domain address for all of my WordPress pages? i.e. http://www.friendsofsapl.ca/reel-monday (without it being automatically redirected to friendsofsapl.wordpress.com/reel-monday)

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

  Hi! You’re referring to domain mapping. Here’s how to go about it:
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/

  First, choose a plan here:
  https://wordpress.com/plans

  Next choose to map the domain: https://wordpress.com/domains

  Then point your domain to these name servers:
  ns1.wordpress.com
  ns2.wordpress.com
  ns3.wordpress.com

  If you need to add other DNS settings before you do that, you can:

  Manage Your DNS Records

  Does that help? If not, send more details and we’ll go from there. Also, it is possible to transfer a domain too, if you’d like to move its registration from Google Domains to our services. You would just need to wait until the domain is at least 60 days old.
