Web hosting and Domain Names, HELLLLLP!!!
Can anyone help? I'm new to all this and I'm about to set up a blog site using 'WordPress'. I have several questions regarding Web hosting and Domain Names.
1. What's the easiest (and cheapest, if it costs) way of changing a WordPress address (.wordpress.com) to a dot com (.com)?
2. Can it be done on the WordPress site or do I need a separate Webhost and/or Domain name?
3. If I need a Webhost, what makes one Webhost's services better than another?
4. Is it possible to get Webhosting and register a Domain name for free? If not, what's the cheapest?
5. Can anyone recommend a website or blogsite offering truly independent information on this subject matter?
I've viewed a couple of tutorials, on YouTube, where WordPress files were transfered to a separate webhost.
I've also noticed a lot of search results offering to design a website for free, after you've purchased Webhosting and a Domain name, via a third party. No doubt commission based for the web designer.
Your help would be appreciated.
