  Hello,
  My BlueHost server expires on the 17th of March and I don’t want to renew right now. I would like to migrate my website over to a wordpress hosted site to keep all of my posts. However, I can’t seem to figure out how to make a wordpress hosted site. I used to have one, but all that I see is the selfhosted site. Every time I try to make a new one, it prompts me to choose a domain without the wordpress extension and a paid subscription. Is there anyway to keep all of my posts and followers when BlueHost expires?? Thank you!

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

  If you do want to use a custom domain, you will need a paid plan, but you can skip that to just stay with a subdomain that we provide for free.
