  Hello,

  My name is Daniel Ahrens. I’ve bought two domain names through the website iPage. However, unbeknownst to me, they tagged on another $107 for hosting the domains. 
  I was wondering if your site would be able to host my purchased domains for free. Please let me know as soon as possible, so I can cancel their charges.

  Hosting at WordPress.com is free. You don’t even need the domain names unless you want to hide the “.wordpress.com/” ending on your url.

  To hide the wordpress.com ending with a domain name, you’d need to purchase domain mapping:

  Hosting with wp.ORG is not free. You could use the iPage hosting with wp.ORG (free software).

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org
