I don’t “do” WP so I can’t help. I’m just wondering why pay for blog hosting when you can get that free elsewhere? I’d only consider paying for that if I made tons of money off my blog, which I don’t. š
I think you’re right. I’ve had the free WP this is a 14 day free trial. I don’t see that it will help me. I think the advantage is it gives you more storage space for pictures etc. but I don’t use a lot of those anyway.
I think with premium you should be able to have your own domain now. So instead of https://christina1952.wordpress.com/ you can change it to be just http://www.christina1952.com or whatever you’d like (as long as it’s not taken I believe) which is kind of nice.
Your site also won’t have the wordpress.com advertisements anymore so you could add your own if you’d like. And then it does give you a ton of extra storage for pictures, videos, file uploads, etc like you said.
If you want to add a donate button, you should be able to go into the ‘plugins’ section of your WordPress Admin section. I think there are some simple ones that work with Paypal donations that will create a button for you, just search ‘donation button’ or something to that affect. Hopefully this helps you out!
