  You will need to set up Domain Mapping to use your domain with your WordPress.com site:

  Domain Mapping is included with all of the WordPress.com Plans:

  Hi, thanks for getting back to me.

  In Step 1 on this page – https://en.support.wordpress.com/map-existing-domain/ – It says “Click the Upgrade button next to “Already own a domain?”

  However, on my screen, there is no “Upgrade” button. Only a “map it” button for $13 per year.

  Is there any way around this?

  Thanks

  The “map it” button is the one you want.
