  Look at building a wordpress site. Should I use wordpress thru hostgator? Is it your full business model or would I get a stripped down version there. If I built in wordpress.com can I still publish to hostgator servers to avoid down time. Does the business model come with ssl certificates, emails, and mobile site translations? Can I put my on code into your program somewhere if I want to edit or change existing code?

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

  WordPress.com and self-hosted WordPress.org (WordPress through HostGator) are different which can be confusing. You can learn the difference between both at https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  If you plan to use your own code, better to go with self-hosted WordPress.org.
