  is there any way I can use wordpress with my actual .tv domain?

  http://www.masablanca.tv

  I see no .tv domains available to purchase on the wordpress site, only .com .org and .net

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

  Yes, you can map your existing domain following this guide: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/

  Thank yo ufor the link. I have read it but, still in doubt, I guess my quation wasn’t clear.

  I want people to type in http://www.masablanca.tv, and arrive at the same url, not any other, not a .org, .com, nor .net wordpress-provided url, but my current one. Nor do I want the opposite, this being people arriving to my .tv url through any of the above.

  Put otherwise, I already have a url + hosting but want to build my site using wordpress and have people reach it exclusively through http://www.masablanca.tv

  Is this possible?

  thanks

  Domain mapping would essentially replace the URL of an existing WordPress.com blog with masablanca.tv.

  So, if want masablanca.tv to be separate blog from what you have now, just register a new WordPress.com blog, like masablancadottv.wordpress.com, and map masablanca.tv to that.

  One last question, redundant and maybe even dumb.

  Would the above lead visitors to http://www.masablanca.tv by typing only http://www.masablanca.tv?

  Thnx much
