  Sorry but WordPress.COM is not set up at this time to accept incoming domain name registrations – you need to have your existing domain name registered elsewhere – but you can move your registration to another registrar if you don’t want the registration at Godaddy.

  Oh … now I’m confused. When you go to your dashboard, then store, they offer domain registration? Is it through a third-party provider then?

  Yes they do offer domain registration at WordPress.COM – but that is only if you register a New domain name –

  Oh … okay, well thank you for your help! I’m still learning about all of this stuff, but so far I am LOVING WordPress because it seems so much simpler to use than other services! And I’m semi-tech-savvy! :-)
