Managed WordPress through Go Daddy.

    I’m a digital immigrant, i.e., 62 y/o. I find that I’m enjoying writing and creating my own website but I’m a bit overwhelmed with the dizzying array of products and services. It feels to me that Go Daddy is making it difficult for me to use WordPress. Is it my imagination?

    WP.com: Yes
    Correct account: Yes

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to moderators and staff)

    Hello –

    Let me try and help.

    The best way to use WordPress is on our managed hosting environment here at WordPress.com.

    That means that our team handles all of the back end details that need constant attention for you to have a successful web presence. These are things like updates, security, spam protection, seo tools, mobile optimization – and our top notch hosting specs.

    When you use WordPress through a host like GoDaddy that means you’re running your own installation. This means that you’re responsible for all of those back end details I mentioned above.

    For beginners, a managed environment will be a much better experience. All you need to do is focus on your content.

    Can you tell me more about this project? What goals do you have? Is there any specific functionality you need? Have you purchased a domain already? This will help me get you in the right direction towards getting your project completed.
