  Hello. I have used domain mapping already and have forwarded a domain name to my blog already. I want to now switch the domain name used and forward my blog to that domain name now? I’ve already paid the $10 and picked the domain, but can I switch? Every time I try to add a new domain to the list and then use that as my primary, it says I have to pay the $10 bucks again to add a domain.

  Thanks in advance for any help you guys can give me.

  You did not specify a blog address or reason for posting when you created this topic.

  This support forum is for WordPress.com hosted blogs only. If you have a self-hosted WordPress blog you need to seek help at the WordPress.org forums, not here.

  If you don’t understand the difference, you may find this information helpful.

  My uneducated guess is that domain mapping is domain specific and ends after a year, but I’d contact Support direct, since this isn’t something the forum volunteers can assist with. http://support.wordpress.com/contact/

  The $10 is per domain you map to your wordpress.com blog. If you want to add more domains or want to switch the domain mapping to a different domain name (because you changed your mind or whatever), that’s another $10.
