The $8 upgrade that you're referring to is for Private Registration and is an add-on to Domain Registration.

When you register a domain, your name, phone number, mailing address, and email address must be made public via a WHOIS record search by law.

Private Registration elects a third-party to hold your domain, thus displaying their information rather than yours.

See this for an example: https://www.domainsbyproxy.com/PublicVsPrivate.aspx

In this case you will receive a bundle domain credit which allows you to register ( with or without the Private Whois option ) and map a domain for free.

I think the .me domain costs a bit more but I can't remember for sure - that might be what they are referring to.

Add for the private registration to hide your personal info in the registration if you want - not required

One thing that I am still not clear on.

Registering a .com, .org, or .net domain through WordPress.com and mapping that domain to your blog starts at $18.00 per domain and per year

from the WordPress support site.

So Mapping the domain and buying the domain combined isn't 18 dollars?

Lets say I buy a domain on WordPress. Does that mean that I am self-hosted?

No - if you map the domain name to your blog here the only thing that changes is the address your visitors see. You will still be here at WordPress.COM and get our fabulous forum support by us unpaid what ever we are called plus the staff keeping the things behind the scene running

You are asking about three different charges - each is for ONE year and needs to be renewed

1) Domain name registration
2) Domain Mapping - this is what makes your domain name go to your present blog
3) Private Registration - hides your personal contact info

I think they all add up to about $ 25 / year

I think the Private part is done at the time the domain name is registered (purchased)

Lets say I buy a domain on WordPress. Does that mean that I am self-hosted? Because I don't want that. And if I buy a domain name on WordPress, will the new .com site lead to my current .wordpress.com blog automatically without additional fees?

I also want to buy the Private Domain Registration which is 8 dollars. Do I have to buy the Private Domain Reg. BEFORE I buy the domain? And for the Private Domain Reg. Is it permanent(does it ever expire)?

Thanks.

Go to your dashboard and then click on Store and then on My Upgrades. Does it show anything? Does it show Domain:formulaoneupdate? If it does, then yes, you purchased it. If it doesn't, then you didn't, at least not through wordpress.com

You can purchase other domains through wordpress or directly through whatever registrar/webhost you choose. godaddy.com is just one of the thousands that exist, and I'm sure you can find one that you like. I used it in the example only because it has a good search function. Good luck!

Phew...ok, learning stuff here.

Ok so I searched that Go Daddy place and I cannot get Formulaoneupdate in one word, but there are options. So basically I have to go somewhere else, Go Daddy, to buy the domain first, then go back to wordpress to map it. And then what?
Why can´t I just bypass the whole wordpress thing and buy formula-one-update.com for $8?
