  Is it true that I can’t transfer a domain purchased elsewhere to WordPress? If so, why not? I’d really like to transfer an existing domain to WordPress so I can keep my client’s bills all under one company.

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

  We can’t accept incoming transfers at this time, but you can map it to your WordPress.com site at the moment:

  We hope to allow incoming transfers at some point in the future, but I don’t have a timeline for this. In the meantime, you might consider transferring it to another registrar if necessary.

  Thanks for your help. I really appreciate it. We’ll just map from the existing registrar for now.
