    I have a .co.uk domain name and want to use it with word press. Why is it not allowing me to use it when I put the domain name in, does it only allow .com domain names?

    you can first register with a normal sub-domain ...
    Later go to the domain name on your backend and add the domain name as you wish...

    Thing to be noted
    Mapping a domain you already own costs $12.00 per domain, per blog, per year.

    It will be good if you ask your web hosters.
