    Hi there,

    Information on domains – and how to get your own – can be found in this article: https://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/

    Hope that helps!

    Hi!!! thank you so much!!! :). But it does not work :(. I want to upgrade just the domain through WordPress.com for 18 $/year, i do not want any other services for now and when i try to do it the cost is 99 $/year :(. Please help me!

    Ok, I can understand the confusion @lelikenunblog.

    As noted in the Domains article from the link included in my earlier reply, a WordPress.com Plan is required to add a custom domain through WordPress.com –

    Adding a domain to your site (either registering a new domain or mapping one you already own) requires a WordPress.com plan. Each plan comes with one free domain credit. However, you can setup additional domains on the same site as add-on upgrades.

    The $99/yr price you are being charged is the cost of the least expensive Premium Plan @ $8.25/month x12 months

    Hope that is a bit clearer.

    No problem.
    Sorry it wasn’t the answer you wanted, but was glad to help ;)

    Thank you so much! I needed to know anyway :). I really think on the web site that is not clear. They say you need a WordPress Plan (which can be free or paid) they do not say a Premium or paid plan :(. So, that you for being telling me!!!!!!:)
