  I’ve contacted BLUEHOST and HostGator for hosting my new website. Is this necessary or can WordPress do the hosting for me?

  Hi there, If you have registered a site here on WordPress.com, hosting is included. You don’t need another hosting provider. WPcom itself is a hosting provider.

  You can see an outline of the WPcom plan features on the pricing page at https://wordpress.com/pricing/ and a fuller description at https://en.support.wordpress.com/plan-features/

  In case you want to set up the open source WP software on either BlueHost or HostGator, you’ll want to read our guide to the differences between WPcom (where we are) and the WP software on 3rd party hosting https://wordpress.com/com-vs-org

  Let us know if you have other questions after reading those guides.
