    Hi there!

    Just to clarify, do you want to move your local site to WordPress.com or do you want to generally use the WordPress software and host elsewhere? I ask because I see there’s a site hosted on Bluehost that’s connected to this WordPress.com account via a plugin called Jetpack.

    So if you’re trying to migrate your local WordPress site to Bluehost, you’ll need to contact Bluehost support for assistance. They can also help you with pointing the domain from GoDaddy to their servers.

    On this forum, we can help with WordPress.com sites so if you’re planning to host your site with us instead, let us know and we can share the next steps.

    There are some differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org. If you aren’t sure about them, please check the following page that explains it well: WordPress.com vs WordPress.org.
