  Hi dicavaidosa,

  No need for that your site is currently hosted by WordPress.com. WordPress.com is a specially built hosting provider designed to keep things as simple as possible for you to just worry about the content of the site not all the back end management of it. All you have to do now is build your site :-).

  Check out more information here about the difference between hosting a WordPress blog yourself (through HostGator, GoDaddy, etc, this is WordPress.org) vs hosting it here on WordPress.com: https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  Let me know if you have any questions. Happy blogging!
