  You can move your site to us following this guide: https://wordpress.com/support/moving-from-self-hosted-wordpress-to-wordpress-com/

  Under GoDaddy, you’d be using WordPress.org, and you can see a comparison at https://wordpress.com/support/close-account/

  If you want custom plugins, you will need a business plan.

  The link above that staff-blorbo gave is not the right link.

  The differences between .org and .com are found at this link.
