  Not sure if I should transfer my current domain name from Google to Word Press???? Any advantages or disadvantages I should consider before making my decision? The other option is to not transfer it but it looks like I could do that and still use my current domain name for my Word Press website. Advantages and disadvantages?

  Hi kahiltnavisions

  Not sure if I should transfer my current domain name from Google to Word Press???? Any advantages or disadvantages I should consider before making my decision?

  If you want to use this domain with your WordPress.com site, you can transfer the domain to us and manage your site and domain at the same place!

  1. Transferring a domain means your domain registration will be moved from your current domain provider or registrar (such as GoDaddy, 1&1, etc.) to WordPress.com.

  2. In the future, you’ll manage all aspects of your domain here, including renewal, cancellation, or a future transfer.

  3. All DNS management will be handled through WordPress.com.

  For more information on how to transfer your domain you already own here is the support document for that:

  Let me know if you still have any doubts on this.

  Hope this helps.
