Web hosting and third party theme
-
Hello, we currently use PowWeb and weebly drag and drop editor for our website. We would like to switch over to a wordpress software and use a third party theme from themeforest.com (envato themes). From our understanding, we cannot use wordpress.com for this, unless we want to host the website ourselves, correct? So we should get a webhoster, like Bluehost, or whatever and then transfer over our domain name, our content, and install our third party theme onto that webhost?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi, yes to use a third party theme you will have to use self-hosted WordPress (WordPress.org) :)
However I did not understand where or on which website you use powweb and weebly drag drop editor.

Ah, okay, thank you! We currently use Powweb.com (not with WordPress software, but they have a Weebly Drag and Drop Builder that we use, but we are developing an entirely new website and looking for new options, especially web hosting). My understanding is what we should do is use a third party webhost, like Bluehost or WPEngine so that we can still utilize third party plugins and themes if we wish. We have a website design team, and content-editors, but we aren’t very code, or tech-savvy, so I’m not sure hosting from our own server is possible for us.
