  Do I need to build my website before I transfer my domain over to Word Press?

  Hi –

  The decision is up to you. It’s common for folks to build the site first, and then, once it is ready, connect their domain.

  Here is some information to help you get started:
  1. https://learn.wordpress.com/
  2. https://en.support.wordpress.com/video-tutorials/
  3. https://en.support.wordpress.com/grow-your-community/
  4. https://en.support.wordpress.com/getting-more-views-and-traffic/

  The site can stay private, and hidden from the internet until you’re all ready to go live. Here’s how you do that: https://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/

  There are 2 different options for connecting the domain.

  1. Map it: https://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/
  2. Transfer it: https://en.support.wordpress.com/incoming-domain-transfer/

  Write back with more questions. We are happy to help :)
