If you are linking your domain to a Wordpress.COM blog you have already started, there should be easily navigated links to lead you to do this.
It's generally called "pointing" your domain to your blog (or website).
If you just bought a domain and want to put a NEW wordpress blog on it, usually you can ask your webhost to help you and they will walk you through it. If they won't, then you have the wrong webhost!
If you bought the domain at the same place you have your webhost, it's easy. If you bought your domain one place and your host (or blog) is somewhere else, you are best to call your webhost tech support line!
If you want to do it yourself, there is usually a place you can find tech support on your webhost's site.
If you are creating a new WP(.org...NOT .com) site on the same site as your webhost, when you install the WP program, it will ask what domain you want to place it on.
It's much more complicated if you did not buy your domain the same place as your webhost. It's worth the few extra dollars per year to keep everything in one place. "Pointing" your domain to your webhost is best done by your tech support team.. Even if you are not a newbie, you will save yourself a TON of time if you just ask your tech support for help.(I speak from experience!) It's easy for them, not so much for us.

Even individuals have their very own websites. Therefore, you should know how to build a WordPress website or any website for that matter.
