  I own two things: http://www.internetindustries.net Also: http://www.nomoremlms.com
  Both of these domains are sitting over at 1&1. I want to transfer them to Word Press. The goal is to close my 1&1 account and have you host it for me. What is the process?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Howdy!

  While we register new domains here at WordPress.com, we’re not able to accept incoming transfers of existing domain names. Therefore, we recommend that you keep the name registered at your current registrar. You can use the domain for your site here at WordPress.com by mapping the domain, as explained here:

  However, with that option, you’ll still need to leave the domains registered at 1&1, but WordPress.com would effectively be taking care of your hosting. Does that make sense?
