    Hello, I am hosting privately my main blog (wordpress org) but it has gotten out of hand with all the plugin and theme, and core updates crushing it all the time.
    Today’s last stroke was spending 3 hours with the private host trying to figure out why it is impossible to upload images, and of course none could figure out why.

    first of all, is it possible to migrate a wordpress org to a wordpress com?

    if yes:

    – are all the updates in the core, plugins, themes etc automatic?

    – Can I run ads, not only via your presets, but also as HTML code in my articles (usually use google ads but ai am considering other agencies.

    – is there support in troubleshooting issue if for example the blog crashes, if media cannot be uploaded etc?

    Thank you for your time.

    WP.com: Yes
    Jetpack: No
    Correct account: Yes

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Regarding your specific questions:
