    Hi there:

    It looks like you purchased that domain at Hostinger and it’s currently mapped to a new WordPress installation there.

    To use your domain here at WordPress.com, you need to upgrade to one of our paid plans and set up the domain connection in order to point the domain to your site here at WordPress.com.

    However, since it looks like you also don’t have any content here at WordPress.com – were you intending to use WordPress at Hostinger? If so, you would need to contact Hostinger support to make sure your domain is set up properly.

    To avoid confusion, there are three different “WordPress” at play here:

    1. The free, open-source WordPress software which powers your website.
    2. WordPress.org which is the open-source project that works on the WordPress software and where you can get the software for free to use on your own hosting provider.
    3. WordPress.com which is a managed hosting provider of the WordPress software and with whom you’re contacting now.

    I hope that clarifies things! Let us know if you have any questions.
