   Hello, I am very interested in setting up my WordPress.org website with my domain name, web hosting from Bluehost and everything else…but one question though. I have a ton of artwork to upload – black and white art, 4-color art, and some digital photography. What are the required Photoshop specs for my images in terms of file resolution sizes, file formats, etc.? Will I have time to visually see how my content appears on my page(s) to see if my files sizes and resolutions look okay for my viewers to see clearly (not pixelized or low res rasterized) and also my online store images before making my website public? Thanks.

   I am considering using WP for an author website. It would include the book description, author bio, contact page, photo gallery, possible blog articles, possible links to you tube videos, and definitely links to Amazon, Barnes and Noble, etc. I do not think I will do any direct selling from the site. What would be the best way for me to go, .com or .org with maybe an upgrade to a paid service, but not to break the bank? I have a Hover domain name but if I can get a free alternative I might go for that.

     You may want to look into WordPress.com to start with depending on your specific needs and if you find you need to use WordPress.org later you can transfer your site using: https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-properly-move-your-blog-from-wordpress-com-to-wordpress-org/

   It is NOT true that you can’t have ecommerce shop with wordpress business plan. I am on the business plan and I have a woocommerce shop. I even had Shopify at first before I moved over to woocommerce. I also have a Genesis theme installed on my wordpress business plan blog. You are not limited to only using wordpress.com themes.

    I’m in my second year with Wordpress.com and have a Premium account, but my costs will go up dramatically next year to $96 for hosting and $26 for my domain name. I can always go back to a Personal account at renewal for $48 + $26 (no more free domain name registration next time) but I’m wondering whether Worpress.org and Bluehost would be more economical. I researched Bluehost before I started my blog last year and found mixed reviews.

    Hi!

    I am a new blogger and made the mistake of starting a wordpress.com site instead of wordpress.org site.. and then paid to upgrade to premium (like a month ago – paid for the year).. is there a way to switch over to the wordpress.org and transfer the money I already paid for the year? or if I transfer do I take the loss?

    Yanıtla

    • WPBeginner Support

      Hi Kelli,

      You can always move your site from WordPress.com to WordPress.org. You can use the same domain on a self-hosted .org website without transferring it. As for refund, they offer full refunds for cancellations during 30-days of purchase.

    Hi, thank you for discussing the difference between WordPress.org vs WordPress.com and that really helps.

    I’m planning to create a website that has an online tutorial content (i.e. like of Java Programming Tutorial, Testing Automation Tutorial). It will have 2 contents:
    – Free Contents (No Membership)
    – Paid Contents (Paid Membership)

    However, this will be my first time to create a website and do not have much knowledge into it. Do you have a suggestion how will I start? Or what type of website do you recommend for me to create? Any recommendation or ideas will help. Thank you!

    Hey, We run a Peer to Peer Support group in Australia for married partners of Bi and Gay people called the Straight Spouse Group and we have a wordpress.com site but want to create a better website, with more capabilities so we’re looking to change to wordpress.org. I am a bit new to this and want to just confirm that if we do, we can keep our domain name, but have the .org extension instead? Correct?

    Yanıtla

    • WPBeginner Support

      Hi Peggy,

      If you are using a custom domain (www.example.com) on your WordPress.com website, then you can use the same domain name on your self hosted WordPress.org website. If you are using a WordPress.com sub domain (example.wordpress.com), then you will need to register a new domain name when moving your website to self-hosted WordPress.org.

      The .org extension is a domain extension, moving your site to WordPress.org doesn’t mean that you will get a .org domain extension, unless you already have a custom domain with .org extension.

      For more information. Please see our guides:

    Hello,
    I have a bit of an issue and I hope you can help me with it;
    I have recently started my blog on WP.com and immediately noticed all the limitations that comes with it. So Im now in the process of switching to WP.org
    Im using bluest, and according to the rules I have to wait 60 days before I can transfer..so im currently still waiting.
    I have of course paid for a premium version of WP.com and now that I have switched and paid for blue host, it seems like a waste of money.
    Can I cancel the subscription I have with Wp.com to receive a refund without complicating the transfer to WP.org (as I still have to wait to transfer it) ?

    looking foward to your reply

    Yanıtla

    • WPBeginner Support

      Hi Nani,

      Yes, you can request a refund please contact WordPress.com support. You will not be able to get a refund for your domain name.

      You can still transfer your website and don’t need to wait for 60 days. You can point your domain to your Bluehost website without migrating the domain name to Bluehost.

    I’d like to start a blog which will make money. According to everything I am reading that means wordpress.org. But I come with several concerns:
    + You make it all sound so simple for even the most tech challenged. My tech skills are a little more than basic. Usually once I learn something it sticks. That said when you talk themes and plug-ins it sails in one ear and out the other.

    + I was learning SEO from my former employer in 2015 when I was let go so I have insufficient knowledge.

    + Once upon a time I signed up with Blue Host on the Word Press recommendation that it is very easy to work with. It wasn’t. It was near impossible. And it took a lot of cajoling to get a refund. I understand you work with other hosting sites, but are they as good in helping novices as Blue Host is supposed to be?

    + I am sure I will have additional questions but first things first

    In this article you have a table where you compare the WP.org features against the 3 WP.com features and in the row for “maintenance” it says that the WP.org includes “maintenance” but not on the WP.com Business. I am not sure what you are referring to when you say maintenance. My understanding is that with WP.org I am responsible for updates and backups. Is that what you mean by maintenance? Is the chart correct?

    I am dealing in diamond jewelry and I have been in the business in the last 25years. My inventory is maintained in an access database. Each product ID is unique and the parameters of diamonds and gold that determine the price are listed separately for each product id.
    My question is that can the integrity of this database in which the inventory is maintained can be extended to my online store, so that the inventory details can be uploaded via excel sheet with all the parameters intact. I could send you the screen shot of the product page in my inventory if you so desire.

    I am and Adobe Muse user and that’s how I created my website. Adobe just announced discontinuation of support for this product, hence I would need to move to a different platform. I know a little bit of a coding, but have never used any versions of WP. If I activate WP on my host, am I going to lose all the existing website information? With .org version, do I need to remove all my exiting files and upload .org files? I just want to test this for now, till I feel comfortable with the site that I create…

    Yanıtla

    • WPBeginner Support

      Hi Ron,

      If you install WordPress on the same domain name as your old website, then your old website will become inaccessible. Muse is a static website builder, which means your website files are served directly. WordPress is a dynamic platform that stores content in database instead of static files.

      We recommend that you install WordPress on your computer to test it out and to import content from your existing website. Once you are ready you can move your local site to the live server.

    As a new web wannabe designer, just like everybody in the world, .com’s chat support for new users on the business plan and above seems a great way to get your feet wet. Given the complexity and chance for dead ends with selfhosting can you really say .org is best for even old, weakminded, or otherwise ordinary bloggers/budding Mark Zuckerbergs?

    This is just so timely as I was about to upgrade my WordPress.com free plan to premium.

      Yes, the appearance of your website is controlled by your WordPress theme. Most WordPress themes available on .com are also available for .org websites. You need to make sure you are using the same theme or a theme that is mobile-responsive.

    Thank you for this article. I wish I had known more before. I’ve been using WordPress.com for one year and I feel like I’m not getting my money’s worth at all. the support is barely constructive, often saying the plugin is at fault and not WordPress.com. there is often little explanation why something is incompatible. When the site breaks there is frustration and little education on how to manage a website for beginners, other than you should create a child theme, but then they don’t guide you how to manage a child theme except try out your theme on Ampps before uploading to WordPress.com. there was little guidance for plugins that would not be needed, such as caching, backups, etc. Only recommendations for using as little plugins as possible. That’s about it. I’m done with WordPress.com. and would not recommend it. moving on.

    This might be a really stupid question… but I have a site and I’m not sure how to tell if it’s wordpress.org or wordpress.com. I have bluehost and I know I had the intention of doing the not free one, but when I log in, I think it’s wordpress.com/admin or whatever the url is. How can I be sure I have the wordpress.org version?

    Yanıtla

      Hi Meridith,

      Here is how you can easily identify whether you are using WordPress.com or WordPress.org

      Login to your website by visiting yourdomain.com/wp-admin.

      Once logged in, take your mouse over to WordPress logo at the top left corner of the screen.

      If you are using WordPress.org, then you will see mouseover menu with links labeled About WordPress, WordPress.org, Documentation, Support Forums, and Feedback.

      If you are using WordPress.com, then nothing will happen on mouse over. However, if you click on the WordPress logo, you will see a slide in menu popup with a light blue color scheme.

      Hope this helps.
