 * Most probably you will be using wordpress.com if you created it online.

 * I did create it online but I paid for a domain name and hosted it through gator
   hub, where can I see is I created through wordpress.org or wordpress.com. Eventually
   want to use paid per post site like IZEA and want to make sure if I do have worpress.
   com that I am able to do so. Does wordpress have direct support where I can ask
   these questions?

 * The name server for your blog currently points to HostGator, which leads me to
   conclude that your blog is currently powered by WordPress.org.

 * You are self-hosted at hostgator using WordPress from WordPress.org.
