Existing Domain
-
Hello, I currently have an old website and made a new website using wordpress. However, i wanted to know how can i use the same old domain name with wordpress. In addition, if I go with Premium plan, will that cover the cost of domain host or i will need to pay?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Do you want to just change content on the site and create something new with the same URL?

Sorry @poccblog, I see you had more to your question, I hit send prematurely.
WordPress.com does not accept incoming domain transfers. But you can map your domain to your WordPress.com blog using domain mapping. You can find more about domain mapping in this support guide: https://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/
There are two costs involved for this:
1) the cost of the domain you pay to the current host
2) The cost of the domain mapping upgrade to WordPress.com -
Hi, i am in the same confusion, i want to map my godaddy domain to wordpress. So that i dont have the wordpress.com attached to it, while mapping it directs me to a payment page of $99 .. so will i have to pay $99 every year?

Yep, that’s what I know, but it may be there are other solutions. I’m tagging your post for staff to take a look, hope you can get some more feedback to help you make the best decision.
