  Hi there,

  I see that you currently purchased a WordPress.com Premium upgrade and added the custom domain: crankstart.me to your WordPress.com site: crankstart.wordpress.com. If this is correct you are currently using WordPress.com.

  To clear up any confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different entities. At WordPress.com, we provide hosting, support, and tons of features for blogs. Users also have the option to purchase a variety of upgrades to customize the look and feel of their blog. WordPress.org is a software for self-hosted sites. With WordPress.org, users are provided access to all backend files and can upload custom themes and plugins.
