WordPress vs. JETPACK

  • Unknown's avatar

    I am just a starter to build a website and I just encountered an offer to transfer to JETPACK. My website is hosted with Bluehost, and WordPress has always been a part of Bluehost. What is Jetpack and why is it recommended to move services to it? Is there a payment involve in signing under Jetpack and WordPress is endorsing to move to it. Is WordPress and Jetpack thesame in terms of building a website, the easiest way? Thank you. Elenito. (email visible only to moderators and staff)

    WP.com: Yes
    Jetpack: Yes
    Correct account: Yes

    Jetpack is plugin owned by Automattic (WordPress.com) to make site safer, faster, and drive more traffic.

    You can read more about Jetpack here: https://jetpack.com/

    Unlike BlueHost, Jetpack is not hosting provider. WordPress.com is the host provider. You can read more about WordPress.com hosting options here: https://wordpress.com/pricing/

    Hope it helps.

  • Hey there,

    Thanks @saadahsan!

    To explain, we are a fully managed hosting provider and use a custom server environment that is optimized for WordPress, provides built-in security and performance improvements, as well as in-house support for your site questions.

    Because of the way we’ve optimized our service, we also use a customized version of WordPress that is different (under the hood) from what you use at your current provider. As a result, we do not have access to your site and are not familiar with the source of your issue.

    You definitely have the option to move your site to us so we can provide in-house help, using our migration plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpcom-migration/ and the site would need to be on the business plan.

    I’m hoping this is useful knowledge!

    Happy to help further if you have any questions.
