    Hello!

    Firstly: welcome to WordPress.com! Great decision to move to .com. I’m probably a bit biased though :)

    Would you like to get this domain – prkingauthor.com – up and running with this site – englishmajorwrites.wordpress.com?

    If yes, you can add a domain via the WordPress.com dashboard here:

    https://wordpress.com/domains/add/englishmajorwrites.wordpress.com

    You can either map the domain you already own or register a completely new one. We can’t accept incoming domain name transfers, sorry.

    It looks like you’ve already managed to move all the content across, is that right? Check that all your images have been uploaded to the new site:

    https://englishmajorwrites.wordpress.com/wp-admin/upload.php

    If you’re happy that all the content has been copied across then you can cancel your web hosting with the old provider. It looks like it might be hosted with Bluehost. Just make sure you don’t cancel the domain if you still want to use it. You can point a domain registered elsewhere to a site at WordPress.com. Full instructions in this guide:
