  If I register my domain for $18, can I transfer my already existing stuff on the WordPress domain?

  When you purchase a domain mapping upgrade the content stays exactly where it is and all that changes is the URLs.

  Important Notes Before Upgrading http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/#important-notes-before-upgrading
  All About Domains http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/all-about-domains/

  In order to map to a domain one must have an underlying .wordpress.com subdomain blog to map from and the domain name you desire must be available for purchase, or you must already own the domain URL.

  You must be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog’s dashboard at > Store > My Upgrades to purchase a domain name by purchasing an annually renewable domain mapping upgrade for the blog.

  See here if you do not own a domain http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/

  See here if you already own a domain http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/

  After you do the primary blog set up it can take between 24 – 72 hours for domain name propagation to take place throughout the internet. You can view the DNS changes here > http://www.whatsmydns.net/ What’s important during that stage is to be patient.
