public hosting for wordpress domain
-
I already get a domain name with WordPress.
I’m thinking that I could host my blog with another hosting services, so can I release my domain with wordpress? use it else? or just use DNS redirect? what would be possible?
Please mention if both are possible.

If you’re interested, we do offer an upgrade called Guided Transfer (available in the Store section of your blog’s Dashboard) where we take care of everything for you.
Otherwise, you’ll need to install WordPress from http://wordpress.org/ on a hosting provider. We have some recommendations at http://get.wp.com/hosting/
Then, direct your domain to your hosting provider by changing your nameservers: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/domain-management/#update-nameservers
Once that’s done, you can move your content following this guide: http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#moving-to-wordpress-org
To clear up any confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different entities.
http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/WordPress.org has complete support and documentation sites for self-hosted/installed versions of WordPress at:
http://wordpress.org/support/
http://codex.wordpress.org/We do offer yearly and one-time premium support packages for self-hosted WordPress sites through our VIP program, available at http://vip.wordpress.com

Hi,
I tried the link:
http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/domain-management/#update-nameserversBut it seems to be not the same that I have on my dashboard?
I already get a domain with wordpress. Why doing that I didn’t order mapping. Is it what I need?

Make sure that you’re logging in through your domain manager: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/domain-management/#domain-manager-login

Yes.
And there is no domain administration on the page I have.
Here is a screenshot of what I have:

If you mean DNS records, you can via your Custom DNS panel: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/custom-dns/
