People Love WordPress.com
WordPress.com works really well with Google for a great SEO ranking. I can also embed YouTube videos, Google Maps, and other content easily and without any coding ability.
I looked into what other bloggers whom I admired were using, and the Cadillac of platforms is WordPress.com, hands down. The themes are breathtaking — even the free ones! — and all of the supporting infrastructure and information is top shelf.
It’s been a great privilege and a life‑changing experience. I’m grateful to WordPress.com for providing an affordable and user‑friendly platform for individuals to launch projects and be heard in this way.
You asked, we answered!
Can I create a website in another language?
Absolutely. You can change your Site Language, which is the language your readers will experience at your site. You can also change the language you see while working on your site in the dashboard. The language you write on your website is up to you!
Will I have to pay for my custom domain?
Your free website includes a subdomain (sitename.wordpress.com). You can register a new custom domain or transfer an existing one to your free site, but you’ll need a paid WordPress.com plan to use it as your site’s main address. Without a plan, your custom domain will simply redirect visitors to your free subdomain.
Can I get an email account?
Yes! Try Professional Email free for three months or choose the Google Workspace productivity and collaboration suite.
Will I be able to sell online?
You can sell individual items on your site using your PayPal account. For more opportunities to monetize, upgrade to the WordPress.com Premium plan to sell products and services using the Simple Payment button. For more eCommerce features, like an online store, consider starting with a WordPress.com Business plan.
Can I import content from another service?
It is possible to import your blog content from a variety of other blogging platforms, including Blogger, LiveJournal, Movable Type, Tumblr, Wix, Typepad, Xanga, and more. You can also import your content from a self-hosted WordPress site.
