Yodaman: is it easy to switch? Are there many differences in how you post? Thinking of switching for the same reasons as you!

shortisthenewblack: My hosting company offers a free service that transfers all my content from my old WP.com blog to a self-hosted WP.org blog so I didn’t actually do the initial set up process. There are a few differences in how you use the system. You will have to download plugins for Polldaddy polls, email subscription services, contact forms, etc. Also, the old related images and articles module has gone (Along with the stats -but you can set up stats using a plugin called Jetpack).
Overall, WP.org is very useful for what I use it for. There are no restrictions or limits. You can do whatever you want (no-one can tell you which programs to use, etc.). ;)

I totally agree with most of the forum contributors: Google Analytics is the most comprehensive statistics measurement tools and it is FREE. I know that moving to WordPress.org I can get it, but I like the stability of WordPress.com, so I don’t have to upgrade almost everyday the plugins and other stuff as I do on WP.org. So I would like to stay with WordPress.com, why you (WP staff) don’t want to include Google Analytics, as the Jetpack Stats one is very poor compare to Google one.

I find it funny how WordPress.com allows native Google Webmaster integration, native Bing Webmaster integration (who uses Bing?!), and still refuses to allow Google Analytics

I’m very disappointed that I can’t use google analytics for my site. It means I will have to move my blog as all our other sites use it (I work for a public library and we have to account to the board).

I’m very disappointed too! Why can’t I use google analytics as everybody who has a blog?!?!?!?
