  I was considering transferring my blog, which is hosted on wordpress, to another server like bluehost or hostgator. I know that i’ll pay the new price, but after the transfer, does wordpress still charge me for the blog or do they cancel the price? Can someone just explain to me what would happen after the transfer is completed in money terms?

  PS. What is the best server to work with wordpress? Ive herd good things about bluehost and hostgator.

  For hosting see here http://wordpress.org/hosting
  I prefer A Small Orange. Their features, prices and support are excellent https://asmallorange.com/hosting/shared/

  For moving your content see here https://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-to-a-self-hosted-wordpress-site/

  You purchased your domain through wordpress.com and there is a 60 day requirement before you can transfer a domain to another domain name registrar https://en.support.wordpress.com/transfer-domain/

  However, see here please
