  If I purchase a domain name will I be able to code it as an actual website or just blog capabilities?
  Blog url: http://foodbyjc.wordpress.com/

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

  Whether you purchase a custom domain or not, you can still use WordPress.com to create a website, including “hiding” the blog section if you don’t need it right now.

  You can see more details about how to go about that here:

  Adding a custom domain to your WordPress.com site will allow you to use any WordPress.com blog address you’d like, and you can also setup email addresses with that domain. For complete details and instructions, you can see this support page:
