  Hi @kdskores,

  If you are planning to build a website on WordPress.com with the domain purchased from outside, You can transfer or map your domain to WordPress.com.

  In both cases, you need a paid plan.

  Here are some tips on getting that site set up:

  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/

  I hope it helps.

  Hi there, hope you don’t mind me adding that if you’d like to keep your site out of search engines and out of view of casual visitors until you are ready to launch, you can change your site’s Privacy settings to Private and then change it to Public.

  https://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/

  Click on https://wordpress.com/settings/general/learneslonlinecom.wordpress.com (only you can access this link) and then under Privacy, change the setting from Public to Private and then click Save your settings. When you are ready to launch you’ll change that setting again.

  Hope that helps but let us know if you have other questions about this.
