# Hosting Question…

 * Can I use sites like Big Commerce/Shopify as my host since it already has a blog
   attached and then just add a seperate domain name to seperate the store & blog.
   I am looking to integrate so I can monetize my current blog and bring it to life.
   I just figured these sites have the same components as hostgator,godaddy, or 
   bluehost and can be built upon since it offers ability to merge with wordpress.
   My confusion is because I dont get why people pay extra for a host if Shopify
   allows the merger or am I missing something?
 * Thanks For Support

 * You need to ask the companies you mention about what services they provide. They
   should list on their own site a method by which you can contact them for presales
   questions.
