  I have purchased my Domain from Google but I am not sure whether I should transfer or map my domain.

  Hi @ayumiaaddison,

  With domain mapping – your domain will stay with the current registrar (Google Domains) and you’ll need to go to their site to manage anything domain related:

  Domain transfer – You will be moving your domain entirely to WordPress.com and you be managing everything site-related to WordPress.com. To transfer you, you need to have owned it for at least 60 days.

  So to answer your question, Domain Mapping vs. Domain Transfer – the choice is absolutely yours. Both methods work just fine.
