  Hey WordPress Community!

  Currently I’m using wordpress.com but I hate the Ads. I know I can upgrade for $99 and remove them but…I can also do the Guide Transfer for $129 for a self hosted site that may be a better deal for me or maybe open grade to the Business package for $299, I just dont know1

  I love the WordPress community and being able to connect to readers, etc. It has allowed me to affordably step out as a new blogger and see what works and what doesn’t as I move forward in being a full fledged online entreprenuer. So, I dont want to lose the connection with the WordPress Community but at the same time I want my site to be able to look and function as professionally as possible and do so as cost effective as possible.

  Please help!

  Thanks,

  Robin-

  hi there!

  as someone who deals with a big number of self-hosted websites on a daily basis, i’d recommend you to stick with wordpress.com. server related problems (like space, memory, compatibility errors etc) are the worst part of having a website and you won’t have any of those here.

  $99/yr is a great deal for the quality of the stuff you get.
