  Hey guys.

  So I currently have my man domain through my current server redirect to this wordpress site. To make it all in one should I delete my domain in my current server and buy the full domain here? (www.sinkorswimproductions.com)

  I also have a custom email address that I have through my domain server which I can’t seem to access anymore (cPanel is gone seeing as the domain site has changed completely) I want to set it up through Google Apps now. Everything is just one giant mess and any form of help would be great

  Thanks

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

  Hi there,

  Don’t delete your domain. Your registrar might not release it immediately, and when they do someone else could buy it, so you might end up losing it.

  Instead, you can map that domain here using the domain mapping upgrade. This is included in our Premium and Business plans:
  Use a Domain You Already Own (Domain Mapping)

  Once your domain is mapped here and the name servers are pointing to WordPress.com, you will be able to also connect your email account here. If you want to use Google Apps you’ll need to buy that directly from Google first. Then you can add the DNS records to connect the Google Apps account here:
