  I have a question about Domain names. I purchased a domain name years ago. and I have built a site with WP recently. Can I use my own Domain name for this WP site now?

  Yes, you can use a domain that you already own, but you’ll have to purchase the domain mapping upgrade to do so. Full instructions here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/

  Nope:

  Domain mapping is a paid upgrade that costs $13.00 per domain, per year.

  @accessibledestinations2014 – then follow the instructions in the support doc I linked to for you above. We cannot do it for you here.
