    Hi, I am currently using Subscription Website Builder. To be honest I’m really not happy with the service and the limits to what I can do. If I sign up which would be the best package to buy and can I transfer all the work I have done from Subscription Website Builder? Sorry for all the questions, I’m a technophobe and all of this is so new to me

    Hi there – We can help you choose the right package, but we’ll need to highlight two things:

    1. can I transfer all the work I have done from Subscription Website Builder?

    We don’t have a feature which does this, so the best resource for this would be speaking directly with the support folks at Subscription Website Builder.

    2. which would be the best package to buy

    To answer this we would need to know a bit more about the type of site you are trying to create and the key features you will need on that site to launch and be successful. For example, will this be a membership site? Will you be selling things? If so, what things will you be selling and how many different types of things will you be selling? Let us know and we’ll be happy to help make a plan recommendation. :)

    Hey,

    Thank you so much for getting back to me.
    I have asked my provider is that’s possible. As soon as I know I’ll get back to you.
    On my site I want to sell and do subscription as well as register interest etc.
    If you take a look at what I have already it should give you an idea. It’s http://www.simplicib.co.uk

    Thanks

    Hello there,

    Many thanks for getting back to me.

    http://www.simplicib.co.uk seems to be showing an internal server error.

    If you’re looking to sell subscriptions and physical products, you would most likely need to start with the business plan.

    Mainly because this will give you the ability to run WooCoommerce (which is free) on the site, along with a subscription add on https://woocommerce.com/products/woocommerce-subscriptions/

    I hope this is useful.

    Hi, sorry it’s just simplicib.co,uk
    I am looking to sell services not physical items
    Which would be the best package to subscribe to via WordPress?

  • staff-mckluskey · Staff ·

    There are two ways in which you can see things (it doesn’t matter if they are physical items or courses) on WordPress.com. You can use the Payments Block (available on any of our paid plans):

    https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/blocks/payments/,

    or you can set up a full online store, where users will be able to create their own accounts on your site and maybe access content just for them. For that, you’ll need plan Business as it will allow you to install WooCommerce and other plugins:

    I hope that helps :).
