  Why must the wordpress.com be in the url when I only want .com?

  If you want your own domainname.com, you must upgrade to a paid Plan, https://wordpress.com/pricing/

  Hi, staartmees is correct.

  You’re welcome to host a site here. Paid services includes SSL, direct WordPress support, maintenance, security, and many other features that tend to cost extra with other providers. Any paid plan here will allow you to remove .com by registering or mapping your own domain:

  Or, you are welcome to use your own free copy of WordPress with another host, buy your own hosting, and use community resources or hired contractors as needed. http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
