  How can I use a EPP key from another site (bandzoogle.com) to add a domain to my wordpress.com site? I have the EPP transfer code already.

  Sorry, WordPress.com does not currently accept incoming domain transfers.

  However, you can use an existing domain name registered elsewhere for your WordPress.com site, following this guide: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/

  That’s disappointing! Does that mean I have to go through a 3rd party site to map the domain name (in this case, nachtrecords.com) to my blog? If so what do you recommend? Thank you!

  Hi,

  It looks like nachtrecords.com is already registered, so you can follow Jenia’s link to map your existing domain by updating the name servers.

  If they don’t allow that, you can move your domain to GoDaddy, then update the name servers once it’s fully transferred.
