  I own two domains. I am currently hosted elsewhere and am looking into getting the $2.99 a month account on wordpress and pointing those domains to a wordpress hosted site. What steps do I take to make that change?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I would take a look at the different plans and see what will meet your needs:

  The personal plan starts at $5.99 per month, billed annually.

  Here are the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org:

  Thanks, Geoffrey.

  I saw the $2.99 last night, but now that I’ve logged in it is $5.99. Do you know what the deal is there? My current host is $6.99, so I don’t know if I’ll bother switching now.

  I’m also curious about the com vs org. I read the page, but still don’t really understand which I’d need to pick. I own domains, I just need someone to host them. That’s .com, right? I don’t know code, so a more basic site is fine with me.
