   Hi I want to upgrade my blog so that I have my own domain name. I want to purchase the upgrade that costs $99 but how does this work. I know that my blog name is in use as a .com so if I upgrade this will I get a chance to change the domain to one that is not in use. Or will I have to make a separate blog that is not in use with a .com and upgrade that one. Also if I upgrade my blog to use a different .com name will I still be able to use the blog name as my blog. I hope you understand this its really hard to explain. thanks in advance.

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

   This is what the bundle which applies to one blog and is for only one year when it's due to be renewed contains > http://en.support.wordpress.com/bundles/

   All upgrades are also individually available for purchase and it makes no sense to purchase a bundle unless your require every upgrade it includes.

   You refer to domains. Your content stays esactly where it is and all that changes is the domain name ie. the URL or blog address if you purchase domain mapping. http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/#important-notes-before-upgrading

   Yes, you can still use the same blog title here > Settings General. See here for the domain mapping upgrade:
