    Hi there,

    We are a separate provider from Hostgator (they also offer WordPress, but we are not connected to them) so to use an upgrade purchased on WordPress.com, you would first need to migrate your site, moving it away from your current host and instead hosting it with us directly.

    do all the plugins are premier or need to buy each one separately for advanced feature

    Any current plugins and themes you have (on Hostgator) will be migrate to our hosting seamlessly so, so your site on WordPress.com will look exactly like what you have now and have the exact same functionality.

    We have a guide here you can follow: https://transferto.wordpress.com/self-hosted-wordpress-org/migrate-from-self-hosted/

    Please note that you will want to purchase the WordPress.com Business plan before you start your migration. If you upgrade to the yearly plan (instead of paying monthly) you will also have access to 24/7 live chat support for any questions you have, which I highly recommend as live chat is a great help.

    Let us know if you need further assistance or if you have any questions.
