  Hi there, my aim is to upgrade my free blog and be able to monetize. Is there information on how to do this and what is the best method. Do I need someone like Bluehost?

  Hi there.

  You do not need to move your site to Bluehost at all. WordPress.com does facilitate monetization in a lot of ways.
  You can read more about this in the links I have provided and also check on the plan features to help you decide on the plan that best suits your needs before upgrading. I have also flagged this thread for staff so they can assist your further

  Thanks for your help, looks great. I think Premium will suit be best but just another question…

  Would you recommend using life-with-janets.com or life-with-janets .org?

  The aim is continue with my blog, send emails to my followers, collect money from advertising, set up paypal, sell subscritions to zoom events etc.

  thanks Janet

  Hello Janet,

  Many thanks for reaching back out.

  Would you recommend using life-with-janets.com or life-with-janets .org?

  This really is down to your own personal preference. Using .org over a .com (and vice versa) doesn’t really have any baring.

  I hope this helps.
