  Hi there,

  If you’ve purchased WordPress hosting outside of WordPress.com but would like to host your site with us you may purchase our domain mapping upgrade ( currently $13 USD a year) from Domains > Add or by following this link:
  https://wordpress.com/domains/add/nighttimemediagroup.wordpress.com

  Our domain mapping upgrade allows you to use a domain bought elsewhere with our hosting of your site.

  To clear up any confusion it sounds like you may have bought your domain through a host of the self-hosted WordPress version download from WordPress.org. This version is maintained by the open source community and can be managed at WordPress.com through our Jetpack plugin.

  For the complete differences between WordPress.com and the self-hosted version see this support document:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  As always, let us know if you need anything else.
