  I have two wordpress.com blogs. Some people I know use WordPress.org. I was curious about what the differences are and what the Pros and Cons of each are. Also if I were to switch to WordPress.org could I import my WordPress.com domains with me?
  Thanks.

  Hello,

  Take a gander at this documentation here for the differences between the platforms: https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  They both have different strengths, but generally speaking if you want simplicity WordPress.com is the way to go, and if you want customizability (and don’t mind getting your hands a bit dirty) WordPress.org offers a more diverse array of options.

  If you decide you do want to move to WordPress.org on a self-hosted site check out the guide here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-to-a-self-hosted-wordpress-site/. For blogs of this type the support forums are here: https://wordpress.org/support/

  Good luck and have fun out there!
