  Hi we have a club website HHDRGA.co.uk it is currently being hosted by 1on1 however they are increasing their costs and we also need a site that can be easily updated by more the one person. We currently use dreamweaver 4 to update the site with 2 people doing this it was built by myself using Dreamweaver 4. I understand html enough to have built this site. We would be looking at signing up to your business plan at he annual cost of £240 annually we would also want to change the domain address to HHDRGA.com Can i just import the site as it is to wordpress or will i need to update the site using wordpress templates. and will i be able to build tables as they currently appear on the site. Regards Dave

  Hi Dave,

  the way of building the sites here, on WordPress.com, is completely different and does not require coding so you wouldn’t be able to just bring the site over. You can bring over the content if you can get the XML file and you may also have a look at some migration plugins (since you’re interested in plan Business) but you’ll probably need to create the site from scratch.

  You can try it for free, see how you like it, or you can directly upgrade to Business and test for 30 days. If you change your mind, you can cancel and obtain a full refund.
  If you register a custom domain, you could opt for a full refund during the first 96 hours. After that time, we would only refund the cost of the plan minus the cost of the domain but you’ll be able to keep the domain and use it with any other site.

  Remember also that domain registrations are included in the plan during the first year so you’ll only start paying for it from the second year.

  I hope it all makes sense, let me know if you have any other questions.
