• Hey

    I found here that WP offers hosting with good storage for a new website ( 13GB ) for 99$ a year

    https://store.wordpress.com/plans/

    so I am just wondering can I move my website form www.remarpro.com to the wordpress.com so I can use that plans instead of hosting with a hosting company like GoDaddy???

    Thanks

  • You could do it, but it really depends on your website and the theme you are using since some themes are not compatible with WordPress.com. You can only use the themes, and plugins for that matter, that are already within WordPress.com. Premium themes are customized for WordPress.com usage only, and cannot be transferred to self-hosted www.remarpro.com sites.

    If you paid for a theme and want to go back to GoDaddy or a similar host, you won’t be able to transfer your theme there.

    WordPress.com is cheaper, but it doesn’t give you the same flexibility as a self-hosted WordPress website. You also need to keep in mind the way you intend to use your website, for example, if you want to sell products and need a shopping cart, you won’t be able to do so in WordPress.com from what I understand.

    My honest recommendation is for you consider very carefully how you already use your website, and how you intend to grow it moving forward. Both .org and .com have their pros and cons, so it really depends on your situation and how you intend to use your site.

    With that said, you could export all of your website content as an xml file by going to Tools > Export > and select All Content. This will generate an .xml file that you can use to restore your posts, pages, comments, and all the database contents into a new WordPress installation including ones at WordPress.com. It won’t export your theme, plugins, or widget contents and you will have to recreate those manually.

    I hope this helps!

    You’re posting in the wrong place and need to ask in the correct forum.

    https://en.forums.wordpress.com/forum/support

    This forum here is for self-hosted WordPress.ORG software installations and no one here has anything to do with WordPress.COM. You really would be better off asking there.

    On top of that, per the Forum welcome, we close topics like this due to the amount of spam that they attract. The WordPress team has provided a list of a few recommended hosting providers. For more details and other recommendations, please search through the forums or via Google (or your preferred search engine).

    Note: By closing this post I neither support nor condemn the use of the servers listed on the www.remarpro.com official hosting page, and encourage you to search around.
