Upgrade for new domain
-
I am fairly new to WordPress, but I have purchased my domain name through Go Daddy. The domain name is deardiary.biz. How can this become my domain name through WordPress. Currently I am using a plan with the name deardiary4192.wordpress.com. I remember picking the domain name, but I didn’t click on one with numbers in it, so I don’t know what happened there. Do I need to upgrade it to the business, just for a blog to have the domain I prefer? I want to upgrade to the $8.25 plan, but I want to figure out my domain here first.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
You can get rid of the .wordpress.com part of your domain and use a custom domain name instead, like example.com. You will need to upgrade your account, each plan comes one free upgrade, you can review the plan types to see whether Personal, Premium or Business will fit your needs best.
There are 3 ways to add a custom domain to your blog:
1. Register a new domain through WordPress.com and have it connect automatically – if you just want a custom domain as quickly and easily as possible.
2. Map an existing domain (one you already own) to your WordPress.com blog – if you already have a domain that you registered and purchased elsewhere.
3. Map a subdomain (for a domain with an existing website) to your WordPress.com blog – if you already have a website you don’t want to affect, and you want to add a blog to it under a subdomain (for example, blog.yourgroovydomain.com).
