    Hello,

    I am tasked with creating a new fitness site for an app my company is building and i have never built a site before. I need some help with what i should do for the process, if i need to purchase a wordpress.org plan in order to have full access to what i need, and in general how i can customize it with our content, photos and videos.

    I created a free wordpress.com account to see if i could just do it there and then transfer it to our domain but im quickly finding out that it does not have the same library and features i need to use. If i can get some help with my questions that would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

    Hi @andrewjporcelli, to upload videos to a site here, you will want a paid plan. Premium will give you direct access to support, video uploads, premium themes, and some monetization options.

    If you have outside plugins you’d like to install on our managed hosting service, you will need our Business plan, because outside plugins and themes add complexity to our support and maintenance.

    This service includes SSL, direct WordPress support, maintenance, security, and many other features that tend to cost extra with other providers.

    Or, you are welcome to use your own free copy of WordPress with another host, and use community resources or hired contractors as needed. http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

    Does that help? If not, send more details and we’ll go from there.

    Also, if you need a guide for getting started, I’d recommend joining or watching one of our webinars for the most up-to-date information:

    Hoping this helps!
