How do I take a domain I currently own and register it through wordpress?

  • Unknown's avatar

    I have recently taken over our church’s website. It had its own domain name – uulafayette.org – and was hosted on this guy who did all tech support for the church’s servers. I upgraded content and layout of the website using wordpress, hosted at uulafayette.wordpress.com, and we pointed uulafayette.org to redirect to it. Now our uulafayette.org domain name renewal has come due, and I’d like to renew it through wordpress rather than the old company, and have it hosted by wordpress which may be more responsive and helpful than our current tech support guy. Is it possible to do this? Can anyone explain to me (in short sentences, with little jargon) what I need to do to accomplish this? I found the wordpress docs on how to move your wordpress.com site to a domain you currently own for $13/yr, but I would like to consolidate the website and domain ownership. I think. Does this make sense? Thanks for any help anyone can give me.

  • which doesn’t seem quite what I need…)
