  I would like to keep my domain with my domain hosting, however, our website hosting is godaddy and we would like to transfer over to WordPress. I am wondering if there is a way to keep the site up while I build the new website in wordpress.

  You certainly can get your site set up here before switching your domain over!

  When you sign up for a new site, we give you a free subdomain (*.wordpress.com) that you can use to start building your new site.

  Here’s a guide that will help you migrate your site to WordPress.com:

  Note that you will need a paid plan at the time you want to map or transfer your domain to the site. You can compare the different plan levels here:
