  Please pardon my newbie-ness.

  I registered a domain at Go Daddy. I set up hosting with Go Daddy. I created a wordpress.com account. I set up domain forwarding (by paying 10 credits) so that my domain now forwards displays my wordpress blog. All of that worked flawlessly.

  however, my blog url displays as: http://myname.wordpress.com rather than just http://www.myname.com.

  is there any way to change this? The forwarding works fine but I would like to keep the cleaner URL.

  Did I screw up by registering a wordpress.com account rather than a wordpress.org account?

  Thank you kindly in advance.
