  I am attempting to start a travel blog. I want the domain name to be millennialblog.travelwithbrevel.com
  I want the domain typed in any search to be that. I don’t want the temp.Wordpress name.
  My website is now not working.

  Hi there,

  I see that travelwithbrevel.com is registered via Bluehost: https://www.whois.com/whois/travelwithbrevel.com.
  By the way, travelwithbrevel.com is a domain, while millennialblog. is a subdomain.

  If you want to map domain or sub-domain to a website hosted on WordPress.com, you need to have at least Personal plan or higher, then adding a mapping subscription is free of charge. More info about mapping sub-domains is here: https://wordpress.com/support/domains/map-subdomain/
  When you complete your sub-domain or domain mapping, you will need to set it as Primary, then all users will stop seeing your .wordpress.com domain in the address bar.

  If you have more questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

  Hi there,

  Are you looking at hosting that blog on Bluehost or here on WordPress.com? If it’s the former, then you need to contact Bluehost as they are your hosting provider.

  If it’s the latter, then you follow the instructions that @maksimurasov provided above.
