  This is a random question, but I was told to come here. What’s the difference between .org and .com? I was kind of kicked off .org.

  Quick Blogcast to Word Press

  I don’t really need to transfer the domain names from Godaddy, but I want a new web hosting program.

  I use quick blogcast which isn’t very good in my opinion, so I want to try Word Press.

  Questions
  1. Anyone know the fees associated with transferring three domains?
  2. I have about 130 pages I need to transfer as well. How do I go about this? Should I copy and save all my articles?
  3. How much is it to host 3 blogs with word press?
  4. Any fees I should know about?

  There’s no edit option.

  75 – so far
  30 for no ads
  15 customization
  30 for private users – misread it thought it was 30 for 35 private users. was kind of confused.

  I don’t want to transfer my domain. I just need a new blogging service.

  What do I do at this point?

  What are you trying to do with your blog? Did you review the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org?

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  Regarding the domains–that’s easy. You don’t need to transfer them. We have a upgrade to map existing domains to blogs here at WordPress.com.

  http://support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/
  http://support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-subdomain/

  If you are looking to customize your blog beyond the CSS (change the PHP/html content for instance) and/or run ads on it, you might indeed be looking for a WordPress.org instance.

  For a list of recommended hosts for WordPress.org instances, please see:

  Hosting

  BTW, please note those upgrade prices you listed for here at WordPress.com are per year and per blog.

  Neither of them won’t work if I can’t run ads on .com.

  Do you have the ability to suggest a blogging service where I can have a community, hosting package, and be able to host my own ads?

  Other wise thanks for the information.

  Yes, advertising is not allowed here at WordPress.com

  WordPress.org + BuddyPress sounds like it might really fit your needs. I’m not sure why they kicked you out (?), but please visit the WordPress.org forums for more information:

  Best of luck!
