    We decided to do a test run of WordPress.org and its features and usability so we created a few pages. We have now decided to go forward and complete our site design to go live end of 2nd quarter. We have our own domain and hosts, can I get help as to how we can upgrade from the free site to the paid version and continue building our site? I understand there are better features outside of the free version. HELP! thanks so much 🙂

    Hi! What is the paid version you refer to? Is it a plugin, theme or do you have a demo of something? Core WordPress software from WordPress.org is free, there is no paid verison.

    If you just want to move site between computer and hosting there are a few ways:

    1) Manually by copying your files and database to the new server, then updating your permalinks. You need be wary of security holes from a local install, so this is a little advanced.

    2) Using a plugin like https://wordpress.org/plugins/all-in-one-wp-migration/ (this is not an endorsement)

    3) Using software on your PC/Mac like MAMP Pro which is a paid version of MAMP that has an automatic WordPress migration type feature (this is not an endorsement)

    Good luck!
