  Howdy!

  Can you tell me more about your plans for the design and function of your site? More details will help me get you pointed in the correct direction.

  Answers to your questions for WordPress.com hosted site.

  1. You can map a domain you already own or register a new one with a plan upgrade. If you’re not interested in a custom domain that’s ok, your free .wordpress.com site is completely functional.

  2. WordPress.com uses WordAds exclusively.

  3. WordPress.com takes care of the SEO for you. The business plan upgrade gives you access to more tools: https://wordpress.com/pricing/

  4. Your hosting costs are going to depend on the traffic volume of your site. GoDaddy would have those details if you’re planning to host through them.

  Please note, that a site created here on WordPress.com is also hosted by us and you do not carry an additional hosting provider. This is quite different from using the WordPress installation with a separate host. See here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
