Lawrence Grodecki commented on WordPress.com Users Can Now Register .CO Domain Names.

in response to Cheri Lucas Rowlands:

Hi there — if you're an existing WordPress.com user and you purchase .co or another domain from us, your site is still hosted on WordPress.com. Here's a bit of info on the differences between a site hosted on WordPress.com and a self-hosted site: http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

Thanks for the clarification.

Marvia commented on Domains 101: Mapping It Out.

in response to Erica:

In that case, it sounds like a Domain Mapping would work best for you. What this means is your current blog address – the *.wordpress.com address – would be replaced by your domain, marviadavidson.com. This would allow you to blog on WordPress.com, but still use your custom address.

Thanks Erica! So for that it $13 yearly and I have to download the WordPress software? Does WordPress have a list of preferred web hosting companies/services?
