You can always let us know if it doesn't seem to be working. :)

To map a previously registered domain to a WordPress.com it costs $12 per year, per blog: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/

but I've got problems to insert the domain to my blog. I went to Settings - domains. then I insert the domain "bonkerinferno.ch". it says, wordpress can't register that (sure, 'cause it's not .com or something else and I've registered it already).

then I inserted the adress bonkerinferno.ch under "I've already registered the domain and configured the nameserver. insert to my blog." when I click the button, the homepage is loading but nothing happens. do you know what's going on?

Could you try adding the nameservers again let us know if it doesn't work?

Thanks!

I live in switzerland and I've no registred and paid a domain on http://www.switchplus.ch. Now I configured the nameservers (NS1.WORDPRESS.COM NS2.WORDPRESS.COM NS3.WORDPRESS.COM) on http://www.switchplus.ch.

I insert the domain at my wordpress control center, but it still doesn't work. Do I have to use other nameservers?

Thanks a lot for your help. Greetings from Switzerland
