I linked my own domain name to wordpress blog, but still wordpress domain name shows up often. Fi in google or if you click in my website/blog on an internal link. Also if I want to share pages of my website/blog to linkedin.

1. What is the URL starting with http:// for the domain your wish to map to? And what is the .wordpress.com sub-domain URL for the blog you are mapping from to the domain?I linked my own domain name to wordpress blog, but still wordpress domain name shows up often.
2. Exactly what did you do? Did you purchase the required domain mapping ugrade for mapping an existing domain? And did you follow all the steps? Instructions for Mapping an Existing Domain

I registered my onw domain name http://www.jacobientravels.com with a hosting company and bought and activated with them the link function to my wordpress blog/website jacobientravels.wordpress.com.
So no upgrade or domain registration through wordpress.
The link works but as said wordpress domain name still shows often. -
jacobientravels,
Unless you use domain mapping every link, etc someone follows on your blog will have the http://jacobientravels.wordpress.com/ URL -
thanks tandava108.
No good news, mapping sounds pretty complicated to me and if I understand it well i have to do this for every page of my blog/website? And pay separately for every link? -
Domain mapping is per blog per year – once domain mapping is done all the Pages / Posts have their address changed automatically $ 12– per year
