  Would an Upgrade to “WordPress.com Business” mean that my WordPress.com blog would be converted to a COMMERCIAL blog that I could sell Products and Services on? … Would it {also} mean that a “Guided Transfer” is NOT necessary? …

  (Note: I just upgraded to 10 more GB, as I can see at: https://thetanetworkersjourney.wordpress.com/wp-admin/paid-upgrades.php?page=my-upgrades&update=auto-renew-disable&product_id=9 … Is that what allows me to embed a YouTube video {which I wasn’t even trying to do} on my New Post of this morning {when I only copied the YouTube video URL, as i have done previously}? …)

  (Thank you for the instruction on Setting the Comments On or Off on a particular post that has been published — by going to the Edit Screen. I have no idea why my New Post showed “Comments Closed” at first — although the Default for ALL posts being to allow Comments)

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

  Hi,

  WordPress.com Business includes these features currently: http://store.wordpress.com/bundles/ — unlimited space, choose from any premium theme, in addition to no ads, a custom domain name, custom design, and VideoPress.

  You can sell items on your site without the upgrade, though would need to link out to PayPal.

  You can embed YouTube clips without any upgrade. The space upgrade allows you to upload audio files as well as more images if you run out of space.

  If you want a more full-service online store, you may want to consider using WordPress.org (more about the difference: WordPress.com and WordPress.org) or upgrade to WordPress.com Enterprise.

  Please let me know if you have any other questions or need anything else. Thanks!
