    Hello, I just found out that there is a difference form wordpress.com and wordpress.org. The person who is helping me with SEO tells me I should have the org version so that I can have more freedom with meta tags on each page. Can I get a refund if I will be hosting myself???? If not, do you keep hosting until it is time to renew even if I transfer to wordpress.org so I do not have to pay again for the year? Thank you very much! Sincerely, Anouschka

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    hello
    There are several differences between WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG. Some of the major differences are found here:

    Yes, you have a more freedom to do what you will with your website when you host it elsewhere, but with that freedom comes the need to know quite a bit more about the nuts and bolts of webpages.
    Here is the policy on refunds, and i will tag this so a real WordPress person will take a look

    If you are only wanting to increase the visibility to search engines, your friend might want to review

    Hi Anouschka!

    anouschkablog.wordpress.com uses the Free plan, so there are no purchases to refund.

    do you keep hosting until it is time to renew even if I transfer to wordpress.org so I do not have to pay again for the year?

    You can continue to use this site on the Free plan for as long as you like; there is nothing to pay :)

    Come back to me if you have any questions.
