Comparisons
WordPress.com is still WordPress. Bizzit is still not. That is the whole fork.
WordPress.com is hosted WordPress with plans, plugins on higher tiers, and a dashboard your cousin recognizes. Bizzit is not WordPress. If you need wp-admin, you are in their aisle. If you do not, do not buy WordPress out of habit.
Pick WordPress.com if WordPress is a requirement and you want Automattic to host it. Pick Bizzit if you wanted to never see wp-admin. Check WordPress.com's public pricing. Our Pro is $12. This is not the WordPress-on-VPS page.
What WordPress.com is
A hosted WordPress product from Automattic: plans, custom domain on paid tiers, plugin story that depends on the plan. Check their public pricing; we do not reprint another product's SKU grid.
What Bizzit is
Bizzit Free is $0 on you.bizzit.io after Google sign-in, with 50 Cipher turns and no daily cap. Pro is $12 a month for unlimited Cipher, a custom domain, overnight jobs from the brief, checkout on your payment account with no Bizzit sales cut, and no badge. No plugins. No PHP. No wp-admin.
Who should pick WordPress.com
Pick it if you need a WordPress theme, a plugin they allow, or a writer who only knows the WordPress editor. Pick it for a blog-heavy publisher who wants that CMS.
Who should pick Bizzit
Pick Bizzit for a small business site from a brief. A blog can be a kind of brief. It is still not WordPress.
What we will not pretend
We will not claim Jetpack, WooCommerce, or their plugin marketplace. The self-hosted VPS comparison is a different slug, we are not rewriting it here.
Lock-in
WordPress.com export is a WordPress problem. Bizzit is a hosted project. Neither is "own every file on a VPS." If that is the job, that is the other article.
A table, not a slogan
Empty cells stay empty. We name our prices. We do not invent theirs.
| Job | Bizzit | WordPress.com |
|---|---|---|
| Software | Cipher / hosted business | WordPress |
| Our price | $12 Pro | Check their public pricing |
| wp-admin | Yes | |
| Plugins | Plan-dependent, read them | |
| Overnight jobs from a brief | Pro |
Limits and caveats
WordPress.org software on a VPS is a different product than WordPress.com. Do not mix the advice. We already published the VPS comparison separately.
If a sentence would require a competitor SKU we have not verified, or a statistic we did not measure, it does not belong here.
What to do after you read this
If this page answered the query, open Create with the nouns from your own business, not a slogan. If it did not, you are probably in the wrong cluster: go back to the blog hub or Comparisons. Do not spin a second URL for a synonym. One intent per page is the whole point of this library.
Tools that actually do this job
These are public pages. Use them when the job is this job. They are not a second product you have to buy.

Questions people actually ask
Is this the VPS WordPress article?
No. Different slug, skipped on purpose.
Can I install a plugin here?
No.
Can I move from WordPress.com later?
You rewrite the brief. There is no importer.
Is WordPress "more SEO"?
Google ranks useful pages. A CMS is not a ranking potion. We do not sell rankings.
