  You have purchased domain mapping which directs your readers to your site hosted here on wordpress.com. The readers see the link without the “wordpress.com” part of the address, but you are still here on wp.com.

  If you want to host your own blog/site free from the restrictions on wp.com then you’ll need to find and pay someone to host your site: to make your site go online. WordPress.ORG has free blogging software you can use for your self-hosted site.

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  Also take notice of this:

  Domains

  Advertising: While a blog must have a mapped domain in order to qualify for WordAds, the Domain Mapping Upgrade does not otherwise permit advertising on your blog.
  Same Terms of Service: The Domain Mapping Upgrade does not permit the use of any kind of prohibited code or upload additional themes or plugins. With the upgrade, your blog will still be hosted here at WordPress.com, which means that you will not have FTP access to your files and you will still be required to abide by our Terms of Service.
