  I just want to register a domain name…I don’t need any of the features you offer with the plans. It used to be you could create a blog site and then pay $18 to register and map it. Is that not offered anymore?

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

  Hi southtownartwalk,

  You can still map an existing domain that you own. However our domain registration services are only included in one of our plans. The Personal plan will allow you to add a domain and give you a little more space for media. Since you are hosting an Art Walk site that may be a great feature so you can have larger high quality images posted. That plan will also get rid of any unwanted ads once you start getting traffic to your site.

  @southtownartwalk, I wanted to clarify we do require a plan to host a domain here now. We did once offer domain-only hosting for $18, but it’s been more than a year since then.

  @taranwanders recommended the personal plan; you can get that here:
