Difference between WordPress.com site and self hosted WordPress site by A Non-Profit Drupal San Diego Company

WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

Not many people know the difference between a WordPress site hosted on WordPress.com or a self hosted WordPress.org site. There are some articles you can find on the internet doing a google search to help you understand it better, and a few videos as well.

We at Green Bird Media – a Web Design San Diego firm, can tell you one of the major differences. WordPress.com vs. hosted WordPress site:

It’s free to start one on WordPress.com but if you want to customize your blog you will have to pay. And there is no access to normal website features like MySQL, FTP etc. Where a self hosted blog downloaded from WordPress.org you will have to find your own host, but usually with that the skies the limit. You can install custom plugins to enhance your site and easily pick from many of the free theme’s offered on the internet. Below is a great video that can give you more information about the diffrerences! Enjoy.
