New to hosting! How do I keep my domain name but leave wordpress.com and host a
-
I created a history blog on wordpress.com a little while back and used one of the default themes. I was satisfied with the design but wanted to put my web design skills to the test; so I opened Visual Studio and photoshop and spent about a month on making something I’m pretty proud of.
The problem is that I purchased my domain from wordpress.com and (not knowing a lot about hosting) I couldn’t find a way to use my code on their site.
I soon found out I can’t do that. Not with my own html files anyway. I would have to re-write my entire design.
What I need help with due to my limited knowledge of hosting is this:
How can I leave wordpress.com and keep my domain name? I paid for a year.
Once I leave wordpress, where can I find a place to host my website online by uploading my index.html and all additional files?
I haven’t done ANY website hosting since the days of geocities!
