  I am (or perhaps now, was) setting up a new blog on WordPress, trying it out instead of my usual home Blogger.

  Why do I need to pay £9 for the privilege of setting up a domain that I already own onto this WordPress account?

  Blogger let me use my own domain for free.

  Why are WordPress charging me for something that won’t cost them? It is ridiculous.

  Are there loads of other hidden charges too?

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

  Do you have your own domain name?
