  Hi,
  I’m starting my business and I would love to know if using WordPress would allow me to create an online platform where members could sign in and watch some videos/contents directly on it. If not, could I add/link another platform to my Squarespace website.
  Final question, if this is available could I have on the same website:
  – the website, welcome pages, about…
  – A blog
  – And the access to my members only platform?
  Thank you so much for your time and help.
  Kind regards
  Charlotte

  Hi there,

  You’ll be able to have all of those, with any plan (free or paid), apart from uploading videos. The video block is supported on the WordPress.com Premium, Business, and eCommerce plans.

  If you want to learn about customising, you can look at a support post, for example:
  https://wordpress.com/support/customize/
  https://wordpress.com/support/video-tutorials/
  https://wordpress.com/support/five-step-blog-setup/

  This support post tells you how to make a members-only area:

  If you want to have a free site, also look at https://wordpress.com/support/tutorials/build-a-membership-website-tutorial/

  I hope this helps!
