  Hi,
  You can map your domain to your WordPress.
  To do this you’d need to buy Map Domain. Follow these steps:
  Go to https://wordpress.com/domains, select your site where you want to map your domain and choose the “Map an Existing Domain” option.

  Then on your domain provider you need to request to add the following DNS:

  NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

  In the following link, you’ll find more information for this process and how to update these DNS settings in the most popular domain providers:

  I hope this information helps you.
