  I already have WordPress though Go Daddy. I am having difficulty with it and Go Daddy cannot help. I came to wordpress for help but my wordpress account (that I set up through go daddy) is unrecognized by wordpress. So set up a new wordpress account so I can get some help, but they want me move my domain to wordpress. How can I get wordpress support and still keep my hosting through go daddy?

  These forums are for sites hosted at wordpress.com.

  You can find help for WordPress software at the wordpress.org forums here: https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

  Hi @kathleenbarto,

  To clear up any further confusion, there is WordPress.com and WordPress.org, and they are two different entities.

  We, WordPress.com, are a cloud-based platform where we manage WordPress sites, whereas WordPress.org is stand-alone software that you can download and self-host with any other hosting.

  You can find more details about WordPress.com and WordPress.org on this support page:

  I hope that helps :)
