  Yes,
  you need to change the “A” record of the DNS to point to your new site. I don’t know either you can do this with the wordpres.com DNS editing or if you need to transfer your domain.

  To map the domain you registered with us to 000webhost, please read these first and find out the name servers assigned for you.

  http://www.000webhost.com/faq.php?ID=39
  http://www.000webhost.com/faq.php?ID=41

  After you have those, follow the instruction below to update your domain.

  We provide custom DNS editor but you cannot add an A record for a root level domain such as example.com for your domain registered here.
