  I want to transfer my existing domain to wordpress as part of my Pro upgrade. I’ve my domain registered with Easily.co.uk and it’s soon up for renewal. Can I, or how do I instruct you that I want to do that as part of my upgrade? I can see plenty of help about moving domains away from WordPress but nothing about consolidating into WordPress.
  Do you think you can help?

  So in short, as my domain comes up for renewal with my existing registrar, I would like to bring it all under one roof with WordPress. Is that achievable?

  Thank you in advance

  Regards
  Paul.

  At the moment, WordPress.com does not accept incoming domain transfers. Please see this earlier forum discussion

  Thanks for the reply. Understood, I’ll keep the domain where it is and continue with the upgrade.

  Most importantly, do not let your domain name expire. It can cause all kinds of havoc and getting it back can be an expensive lesson.
