  Hi

  I have a blog which is hosted on wordpress.com and is great. I now want to have another self-hosted site.

  Can anyone tell me if it is exactly the same as using the com site. For example are all the templates the same and the ease of use the same?

  Thanks in advance of any advice.

  Regards, Alison

  No, it’s not the same. The sticky at the top of the forum explains the differences https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic.php?id=3700&replies=1

  Aside from the sticky about this topic at the top of the support forum page, there is this FAQ entry on both the differences and the pros and cons of each.
