  Hi sophiavrahimi,

  I now want to use WordPress to create my website.

  It’s important to note there are two version of WordPress:

  • WordPress.com: where the site is created on WordPress.com and an existing domain can be connected with domain mapping.
  • WordPress.org: where WordPress.org software is installed on a third party hosting.

  We have some more information about the differences between the two here:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  Just let know which option you prefer and I can send more information.
