  Hi there,

  can I create site here and then have GoDaddy host it?

  Of course you can do this. Visit GoDaddy for more information about their hosting service for WordPress.org:
  https://au.godaddy.com

  Hope this helps.

  No, I don’t suggest it. If you create a site here, it’s on WordPress.com hosting servers. You can export the contents of the site to GoDaddy hosting with WordPress.org software, but it won’t move the look of the site you designed. If you plan on hosting at GoDaddy, install WordPress there instead.

  Here’s a bit about the differences- https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  You can host a site here and map a GoDaddy domain. No GoDaddy or other hosting is needed in that case. Here’s how you’d map your domain to WordPress.com hosting.
