When we think of a data center, some will think of a large building housing racks of servers, networking gear, and various support equipment to deliver power and cooling to all of that infrastructure. Others may think of it a bit more abstractly, as a “place” where we store our data and perform compute functions … Continued

Our mission has always been to democratize publishing, one website at a time. Now we’re making all the benefits of WordPress available to more people, with one simple pricing plan.
Hello, Pro
One thing we heard over the years was how hard it can be to choose the right upgrade plan when you’re ready to scale up from Free.
WordPress Pro radically simplifies that decision by rolling the very best of managed WordPress hosting into a single, affordable plan at just $15/month (paid annually).
50,000+ Plugins in Your Pocket
Plugins are powerful add-ons that make it simple to add limitless functionality to your website in just a few clicks. No coding necessary. With WordPress Pro we’re opening the doors to this unlimited array of extra features at half the price of our previous Business plan.
A Universe of Beautifully Designed Themes
Along with thousands of free themes available, Pro also unlocks a range of beautiful, Premium themes, with more to come in the future. Whatever your goals, you’ll find a hand-crafted, flexible theme to transform your design in minutes, not months. No designer necessary.
From Site to Store in a Couple of Clicks
If you’re ready to start selling, WordPress Pro includes everything from simple payments, donations, and subscriptions, to full-blown stores.
WooCommerce – one of the most popular ecommerce platforms on the planet – is baked into your Pro plan. Not only does that bring raw, almost infinitely expandable options to your store, it also means you’ll pay significantly less than those other e-commerce options you see in ads everywhere.
Anytime Support, Any Time You Need It
Sometimes you need a little extra help getting it done. WordPress Pro customers can get a helping, human hand with Premium Support over live chat and email. If you’re stuck, we’re here to get you unstuck.
Managed WordPress Hosting For the Rest of Us
WordPress is all about the right to do it yourself.
With cheap hosting, or even a Raspberry Pi on your counter, you can put up a site in minutes for pocket change. But you’ll run into hours of hands-on maintenance, quickly hit speed, security, and hosting limits, and spend a significant amount of your time keeping it running. Managed Hosting takes away that pain, but often at a significantly higher price.
WordPress.com and the new WordPress Pro plan aim to give you the raw power, flexibility, and hassle-free experience of Managed Hosting, without the huge price tag that usually comes with it.
In addition to the headline features of Pro, you’ll get:
Custom domain names without a separate subscriptionSEO features that make your site easy to find.Social media tools to promote your website.Hyper-secure protection from DDOS, brute force, and other attacks that could take your site down overnightSuper-strong, real-time, automated backups spanning multiple locations, so if the worst ever happens, you’re coveredThe fastest site speeds of any managed hosting on the planetSFTP access to your filesAnd much more
That means you’ll enjoy a fast, secure, search optimized site, without having to spend countless hours on updates, fixes, and technical maintenance.
What About Free?
Our Free plan isn’t going away.
It’s important to WordPress.com that anyone, anywhere can put up a blog or a site, whatever their situation. With the Free plan you’ll still be able to get the word out, create a beautiful site, and take advantage of the fastest WordPress managed hosting on the planet. And when you’re ready to scale up your ambitions, WordPress Pro will be waiting in the wings.
How This Affects Your Current Plan
While we’re making a few changes to the Free plan, rest assured that if you’re already signed up, nothing will change for you. Ditto, if you’re on one of our legacy plans, nothing will change unless you want it to.
Going forward, new signups and sites will integrate smoothly into our new Free and Pro plans.
Your Money Goes Further. And Further.
WordPress Pro is more than just a simple, competitive way to enjoy rock-solid, super-fast, hyper secure WordPress hosting without the hassle.
Every dollar you spend on your plan helps us to:
Support WordPress.com Free plan users around the world, whatever their circumstances. This is more important than ever in 2022.Sponsor the work of 90+ dedicated developers working on the free, open source WordPress project as part of the Five for the Future initiative. That helps to ensure that WordPress will always be free, open, hackable, and hostable by anyone.
We’re Here For You
We’re listening to your feedback, and want to be clear that it will, as always, shape the future of WordPress.com.
With that in mind, we’re committing to:
No traffic limits on either the Free or Pro plan. You’ll enjoy the same unlimited traffic you’ve always had.The new Free plan storage limit will include 1GB of Free storage, and existing Free users will keep the 3GB they already have on hand.Additional storage will be available for purchase at a very reasonable price, very soon.As-you-need them add-ons for both plans, to give you a la carte upgrades. Coming soon.
It’s important that we keep things simple, honest, and clear in everything we do, and we’re looking forward to hearing from you about your plans, feedback, and ideas!

Earlier this year, we kicked off 2022 with Bloganuary, a daily blogging challenge during the month of January. The feedback we received about the challenge was overwhelmingly positive, and it’s clear that prompts serve as a helpful way to inspire people to write and to connect with other bloggers.
We want to keep that momentum going, so we’re excited to introduce a new set of prompts for creators of all types — whether they participated in Bloganuary or not. Meet WordPrompt, a single-word monthly exercise that aims to inspire you to create new posts, regardless of what or how you publish.
Are you a food blogger sharing recipes? We challenge you to cook up something interesting based on an individual word.
Are you a photographer with an online portfolio? Show us how the prompt is represented in picture form.
Do you host a podcast or a vlog? We’d love to witness how a single word inspires an episode.
Whatever you publish, we hope you find inspiration in WordPrompts. To join in on the fun, add “WordPrompt” as a tag to your post, allowing your content to be discovered more easily in the Reader, and use the hashtag #WordPrompt when you share your post on social media.
This month’s WordPrompt is:
GREEN
You can find new WordPrompts on our social channels and in our newsletter each month, so be sure to follow us and/or enable the newsletter emails in your account to participate!
