What is WordPress
WordPress is a free and open-source content management
system (CMS) based on PHP and MySQL.

Essentially, WordPress works the same in either format. WordPress is a

content management tool that runs almost 30% of the entire internet. And
today we are going to compare the details between WordPress.com and
WordPress.org.

Defining .com & .org versions of

WordPress

WordPress.com

WordPress.com is a blogging platform that

is owned and hosted online by Automattic.
WordPress.org

WordPress.org is where you can download

free software (or the blogging platform) to
install on your own site.

Wordpress.com

You can get a free blog at WordPress.com. You don't need to pay for
hosting or a domain. WordPress.com doesn’t allow you to use plugins (and
this is the biggest drawback of .com version) so, you don't need to pay for
them. In the .com version, you are not allowed to edit the back end either. In
short, you get the power of WordPress without the ability of customizing it.
