  Hey there. I have a blog on wordpress.com “https://alwayselectrical.wordpress.com/”. I want to host this blog somewhere else. So is it possible to move my blog from WordPress.com to another host by still using the above mentioned domain.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  No, you will not be able to use that domain on a blog hosted elsewhere. You will have to buy a domain name for your new blog. For $35 you can buy the Redirect Upgrade here, so everyone typing in https://alwayselectrical.wordpress.com/ automatically gets diverted to your new blog. It’s worth it. You only need it for the first year.
