WordPress blog or WordPress website

This is a rather clean-cut answer in my opinion, but each to their own and of course there will be varying opinions on this. The WordPress.com blog hosting service offers one major feature that self-hosted installations managed by WordPress newbies don’t have: great security. It’s no secret that a self-hosted WordPress installation can be a lot of work especially when it comes to locking it down against hackers.

If you want functionality the WordPress.com blog hosting doesn’t offer, then I suggest you move now. If you have 100+ posts down the track, the margin of error from the exporting to the importing stage will be much higher.

If however you can’t deal with the prospect of potentially having your site hacked from what seems to be an endless game of cat and mouse vulnerbilities between the core developers and exploiters, stick with WordPress.com
