    Ok I setup wordpress on a free host(000webhost) and wanted to get my own domian name. If I buy my own domain name and have it pointed to my wordpress site, visitor won’t see the free web address, right? and will I have to change the address in the admin area?
    Thanks

    That depends what kind of domain redirection you are able to use. Far better to move to paid hosting when you register your domain name.

    will I have to change the address in the admin area?

    Not unless you move your site.

    This is usually called domain masking. You pay about $10 a year, and it will “mask” / hide your URL so all you see is the domain.

    I believe Godaddy offers this kind of service. Google is your friend.
