Welcome to another eMediaCoach.com tutorial. In this video, I'm just going to outline the

main differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org. Now, the differences are quite

major, and it really depends. The one you select really depends on what you are trying

to achieve. So, let's just go through this list here.

WordPress.com - focus on your content, and WordPress.com will handle the rest. Basically,

what it is, is a ready-made platform. You need to sign up and select a sub-domain, and

put your content up. However, WordPress.org requires you to have

your own hosting account, and you'll be hosting your website yourself. Now, this may sound

more complicated, but it's really not. You'll see in our other video, How to Make a Business

website, but what this essentially means is that if you're hosting WordPress on your own

server, which you are with WordPress.org, that means you have absolute control over

anything and everything. So, your website will look like this.

You can have your own .com domain name. That is your own address on the Internet. However,

if you use WordPress.com and sign up as a member, your website URL will look something

like this. It's just a subdomain of the WordPress site,

and because it's not hosted on your own server, it just means that you don't have much flexibility

and room to move. And plus, as a business, it's really not ideal to have a URL looking

like this. Much rather you have a URL that looks like this. This really isn't complicated.

If you want a complete tutorial to setting up this website, please watch our step-by-step

video on making a business website. However, this is one of the key differences between

WordPress.com and WordPress.org. Now, just running through this list, like

I said, you need to find your own host. It's literally $5 a month. It's not a big deal.

WordPress.com, you can choose from hundreds of beautiful themes. A theme is just the look

of your website, and there are basically a gallery of themes or designs that you can

choose from. It is the same for WordPress.org except you can install custom themes, build

your own, and edit your own themes from the dashboard. So it's highly customizable.

In both WordPress.com and WordPress.org, you can integrate your social media.

WordPress.com, one of the other major drawbacks is that you cannot install plugins. Now, what

is a plugin? It's basically an add-on to allow you to improve or extend your site's functionality.

For example, if you look outside here and see this top slider image, this is actually

a plugin that has been added to our installation to allow for this to occur. Now, you can't

do this with WordPress.com. Other add-ons or plugins include contact forms, image galleries,

video galleries, and all kinds of things that can have a huge impact on how your site actually

turns out. Back on this page. For WordPress.com, you

must register for an account at WordPress.com. For WordPress.org that's not required. You

basically own your own installation. Having said that, WordPress.org is the best way to

build a business website, there is no better way.

WordPress.com is more for people that want to just put up a blog, or just general content

to pass time. But if you're serious about your website, you need to host your own installation

of WordPress on your own server. That way you have full control over your website, and

limitless possibilities with what you're able to achieve or what you're able to add or display

on your site, and you're not restricted in any way whatsoever.
