  Hi there,

  The personal plan comes with a domain credit, which allows you to either register a new custom domain with WordPress.com or map an existing custom domain to your WordPress.com site. It looks like you already have a custom domain with http://www.cosmos-original-productions.co.uk, so you have three options:

  • Transfer http://www.cosmos-original-productions.co.uk over to WordPress.com and use it with your site
  • Keep your domain with Nominet UK, point the nameservers and map the domain over to your WordPress.com site.
  • Register an entirely new custom domain with your WordPress.com site.

  Please look these options over and let me know if you have any questions.

  Thanks!

  at the moment my wordpress site is: walkerjohna.wordpress.cpm
  can I have http://www.cosmos-original-productions.co.uk
  in its place?

  If it’s transferrable, it’s included in the cost of your plan. Otherwise mapping or a new domain registration is included in your domain credit.

  But I actually don’t think a .co.uk domain will transfer properly here, so you may need to keep it renewed through your current registrar and just map it here.
