  Hi, I’ve just registered a domain name with bluehost. I thought I could just use WordPress with my domain name but now it seems I have to pay WordPress as well? I am so confused!

  Hi there, it can be confusing because there are two “flavors” of WordPress.

  If you have hosting and a domain through Bluehost, you will be using the open source WordPress software and you’ll find documentation and your support forums at https://wordpress.org/support/

  You can learn more about the differences between WordPress.com (where we are ) and the open source WordPress software in our guide at https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  Hope that helps.
