I want my wordpress.com blog to be displayed as the domain of my chosen.

Hi,
I would like my blog imikki.wordpress.com to be displayed as design.imikki.space which I registered via Bluehost. I asked their customer support and they said to ask wordpress.com for the name sever or the specific details so I can get back to them. Can anyone help me? Thank you for reading and have a nice day!Cheers,
MikkiThe blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi imikki101
You can use your existing domain with WordPress site in two ways:
1. Transferring the domain to WordPress.com
– Transferring a domain means your domain registration will be moved from your current domain provider or registrar (such as GoDaddy, 1&1, etc.) to WordPress.com.
– In the future, you’ll manage all aspects of your domain here, including renewal, cancellation, or a future transfer.
– All DNS management will be handled through WordPress.com.Here is the support document that will let you know more about this:
https://en.support.wordpress.com/incoming-domain-transfer/#preparing-a-domain-for-transfer2. If you don’t wish to Transfer the domain to WordPress.com then you can simply map that domain to your WordPress site.
Here is the support document that will help you to know how to map your domain to your site:

Hope this helps.

Hi,
Can I ask a question, does mapping a subdomain to example.wordpress.com will make example.wordpress.com be displayed as the subdomain?
I’m reading this https://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-subdomain/#adding-a-mapping-subscription and I can only follow part of it.

You can easily map your domain design.imikki.space in place of example.wordpress.com.
Only you just need to add a CNAME records at your registrar.
Here is the support document for that:

I’m going to check out the link now. It will take a while for me to digest as well.
Thanks Shubhamgmath!
