  Hi les10000,

  If you already have a domain purchased, and want to use it to display your WordPress.com content, you would first need to create a new site, add a paid plan to it, and connect your custom domain by using domain mapping.

  You can create a new site from this page here.

  More information about domain mapping can be found here:
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/

  There is no additional charge for domain mapping for sites that have a paid plan.
