Hello Mike, There are many reason why both WordPress.com or self hosted WordPress are excellent choices.
I use both and have been doing so since 2004 or thereabouts. The Candle Shore BLOG, www.candleshoreblog.com, is a WordPress self-hosted site. If you would like to discuss the various aspects of each option, send me your phone number, off-list along with the best time to call, and I will give you a ring. My direct email address is: mk...@ucla.edu Until Then, Mark -----Original Message----- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Blinkin Sent: Tuesday, June 26, 2012 11:29 AM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Self hosting with wordpress.org question All, I have an account with wordpress.com so it is hosted by them.
