Change domain name registration and hosting from Verio to Word Press.

    My domain name (durgama.com) is registered with Verio, and the current web site with this URL is hosted by Verio. Another version of this site has been prepared on Word Press under the name of durgamashakti.wordpress.com to replace the original web site at Verio. I would like have both the domain name and the new Word Press site at Word Press, and abandon Verio. This would also mean changing the current name from durgamashakti.wordpress.com to durgama.com. How do I do all of this and in what order?

    It is discouraging to click on a "Contact" link only to find that there is no way to contact Word Press about anything. Did I miss something???

    The blog I need help with is durgamashakti.wordpress.com.

    You purchase a domain mapping upgrade to map from durgamashakti.wordpress.com to durgama.com
    Follow these instructions if you already have a domain that you registered elsewhere, and you want to map that domain to your blog. http://support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/
