  I have registered the following domain: ohdeardollyblog.com. Please tell me what I need to do so that that is the domain name that I use for my WordPress blog.

  Thanks.

  If you have registered that domain through an outside web registrar you’ll need to purchase the domain mapping upgrade from WP.com to map that domain to your free WordPress URL. Full instructions here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/

  Note your blog will still be hosted by WP.com, so the terms of service is exactly the same as for your free blog.
