Since you already own your domain, it is easy to use it here on WordPress.com. All you need to do is map your domain.
To start, you need to get the domain mapped by going to the domains page at https://wordpress.com/domains/ and select your site. Then choose the Map an Existing Domain option.
Once you have completed that process, you need to update the domain name servers, or DNS, at the company you purchased the domain from. You need to replace any existing name servers with:
– NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
– NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
– NS3.WORDPRESS.COMIf you need help with that step, they should be able to help you with that. Then you just have to wait until the DNS updates, usually a few hours. You should also clear your browsers cache, following the instructions at https://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/
Further detail including specific directions for certain domain providers can be found at https://en.support.wordpress.com/map-existing-domain/
