Yeah it’s not THROUGH wordpress per se, it’s like when you go to upgrade tab you can purchase a domain name. It does it through this service: Automattic. I don’t think i’ll have to transfer the domain name to another host for some time but as it works for right now it redirects to my wordpress blog and this works out great for what I want to do right now. I just want to make sure it’s possible to do so in the future as there was a bit of confussion when I read the documentation that wordpress sends you to before you purchase the domain through them. It was written in 2006 so I don’t know how much of it still applies as it says things will be different in later versions.
