    (1) does WP offer email accounts
    wordpress.COM does not offer email accounts per say. I believe you may be referring to a blog on a domain that’s being domain mapped by wordpress.COM and I found this in the wordpress.COM support documentation for you http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/custom-email/

    (2) f I want more traffic to my blog how much can i have or is there a limited amount?
    You can have as much traffic as you can get. There is no limitation on the number of posts or the bandwidth. If you use the forum searchbox you will find many entries on how to actively promote your blog, attract new readers to it and increase the inflow of “organic” (unpaid for) traffic.

    thanks ok now that step 1 is done i`m having an issue with step 2 of the set up/ verify domain process:

    Step 2: Verify domain ownership. Before we can fully activate your services, you will need to verify ownership of swaggtalk100.net. From the control panel, you can verify by either uploading an HTML file or creating a special CNAME record. Verifying ownership does not cause any change to your existing services.

    thats what i recieved not sure if i need a certain program installed on my pc to do either or not also which of the two is faster/easier to do to verify?

    Go to the Settings –> Domains menu from your WordPress.com blog’s dashboard. If you have mapped a domain, you should see a link that says Enable Google MX in the far right column

    ok did that this is what i`m getting now(i enabled it):

    Disable Google MX
    Enter verification text:

    I dont have text to enter and ive looked for a code or something to enter there, ive checked the email after sign up there was a link with a verify button, but I dont see that page anymore. I can log inand out of my apps account with no issue to enter there

    When you signed up for google apps, You need to select the “Upload HTML file option” as a method to verify ownership of domain. Once you select this option, you will see a verification code that starts with “google” and ends with a series of random characters. You will need to use paste this code into “Enter Verification Text” field.
