Confused about hosting
-
I apologize if this has been clearly answered. My eyes are spinning like slot machines and my brain is on overload of information.
Do I need to find a hosting company like: WP Engine, Hostgator and Dreamhost, or are the same services already being provided with my free wordpress site?
I need to create a website for my freelance writing business.
I do know:
– I don’t want WordPress.org because I need technical help and have zero coding skills.
– I don’t want the expense of a fully managed web hosting. ($20+ per mo.)
– I understand domain mapping and that I can get that from WordPress.com (for a fee) or GoDaddy type sites.I don’t know:
– If building my business site on WP and adding the domain mapping is enough to be visible and professional on the web, or if I should be paying for one of the services that charge $3.95 to $9.95 a month? (WP Engine, Hostgator and Dreamhost)– If it ends up that I should be using that service for a monthly fee; will my WP content move to that host and I do all future editing at the host site, do I keep making changes through my WordPress account dashboard and the rest is behind the scenes, or do I have to start from scratch and build my site on the host?
