  Hi there. Just to be clear: you have bought a domain with GoDaddy and you want to use that domain with your WordPress.com site?

  In that case you’ll first need to buy the domain mapping upgrade. Without it changing your name servers won’t do anything. Once you’ve bought the upgrade, change the name servers to wordpress.com. Complete instructions here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/map-existing-domain/

  Hi! I did that. My credit card was charged 17$. It says I need to edit my DNS or whatever on GoDaddy. That’s where I’m getting stuck!

  The link I gave you includes instructions for doing that. DNS is the abbreviation for domain name servers. https://en.support.wordpress.com/map-existing-domain/#2-update-your-dns
