  Hi,

  I have some questions concerning domain names and space.

  1/ I have my ow domain name registered elsewhere. So,if I use it here, I will have to pay for $13 per year, correct? But I see also the WHOIS fee which s $8 now per year. I a already paid for WHOIS to my domain name registrar, why I need to pay again at WordPress.com?

  2/ Suppose I want to create a second blog and use a custom domain, I must pay $13 again to map it?

  3/ Suppose I create a second blog, the 3GB space is included in it or I get another 3GB again?

  Thank you

  That is correct.

  But I see also the WHOIS fee which s $8 now per year. I a already paid for WHOIS to my domain name registrar, why I need to pay again at WordPress.com?

  The only thing you would need to pay for is the $13/yr Domain Mapping upgrade.

  Suppose I want to create a second blog and use a custom domain, I must pay $13 again to map it?

  Yes. Domain Mapping only applies to a single domain and a single blog at a time.

  3/ Suppose I create a second blog, the 3GB space is included in it or I get another 3GB again?

  The Free 3GB of space is per blog, not per user account.

  Please let me know if you have further questions or if anything is unclear.
