Need assistance: Should I use WordPress software or the WordPress Blog?

    This question is directed to someone on the WordPress Team. I don’t write code or do web design and am starting a blog that I eventually want to monetize down the road after readership increases. Should I just go with a basic account and upgrades for now and then use WordPress software later on with my own host? My concern is shifting everything and losing links. Do I need to be able to write code to use the WP software? I am not interested in hosting my site via the high traffic VIP WordPress deal at 300. per month so that’s not an option, but if I can get a form of the VIP option where you set it up and I host elsewhere or a hosting WordPress plan that is leveraged with my traffic, I would be interested in that.

    Thanks very much!

    Questions directed towards the WordPress staff should be emailed or sent in via the Support button on your dashboard. The forums are mostly staffed by volunteers.

    And there’s no need to post twice here.

    You might want to look around the forum for some posts related to WordPress.org, including the sticky post at the top of the forum called “WordPress.com vs WordPress.org”.
