I have created my own Domain through Ipage. I am trying to link it to my existing blog. Am I able to do this with the free version?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

You will require an annually renewable Premium upgrade to map to an existing domain. http://support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/
In order to remove the .wordpress.com URL and replace that with a domain URL you have to purchase either a Premium upgrade http://store.wordpress.com/plans/premium/ or a Business upgrade http://store.wordpress.com/plans/business/. Both upgrades are renewable annually and you are billed annually for them.
