  You will need to set up Domain Mapping to use your domain with your WordPress.com site:

  Domain Mapping is included with all of the WordPress.com Plans:

  Thank you for the response rootjosh,

  I did all that already and it adds a Personal plan to my basket! Should I purchase that? I thought there was a free version? But would that be if I wanted it to be .wordpress.com? Thats where i stopped as i wasnt quite sure!

  Hi! You must purchase an upgraded WordPress.com plan on your site in order to map a domain. The Free plan does not include domain mapping.
