  Hi,

  WordPress.com premium plan brings many additional features. You may see all of them here: https://wordpress.com/pricing/

  You can easily redirect your existing free WordPress.com site to a premium WordPress.com site with a new domain. See this for more details: https://en.support.wordpress.com/site-redirect/

  You can also map a subdomain. This URL will help you do that: https://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-subdomain/

  Hope this helps! :)

  thanks for the reply … already checked the mapping page but I don’t find the right way to redirect to a complex url, I mzan, you can point to a domain but domain.com/tag/example/ isn’t accepted

  Hi there,

  We don’t support mapping or redirects to subdirectories on a WordPress.com site. It’s also not possible to map a specific page on your site to a subdomain as that would require access to the server configuration files which we don’t offer on WordPress.com, regardless of plan.

  On a Business Plan site you might be able to set up redirects like that using a plugin. But you’d need to ask in the self-hosted WordPress forums which plugins are available to do that, and I cannot guarantee they’ll work with WordPress.com.
