  Hi there,
  I purchased a template from ThemeForest (wordpress – belleuve theme) and own a domain on Godaddy.

  How would I transfer this over to my Godaddy site. I don’t believe I have hosting yet.

  Thanks in advance.

  Regards,
  Mike

  Hi there!

  To clear up any further confusion, there is WordPress.com and WordPress.org, and they are two different entities.

  We, WordPress.com, are a cloud-based platform where we manage WordPress sites, whereas WordPress.org is stand-alone software that you can download and self-host with any other hosting.

  You can find more details about WordPress.com and WordPress.org on this support page:

  https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/

  You can create a site here, on WordPress.com, and map your domain as explained here: https://wordpress.com/support/domains/map-existing-domain/.

  To be able to use third-party themes or plugins, though, you’d need plan Business:

  If you opt for hosting your site elsewhere, you can check this page for more info: https://wordpress.org/support/.
