Choose the Premium plan (formerly known as the Explorer plan) to create a professional WordPress website customized to your tastes. This guide explains what’s included in the WordPress.com Premium plan.
In this guide
The Premium plan gives you:
- WordPress hosting.
- Everything included in the free version of WordPress.com.
- Everything included in the Personal plan (free domain for one year, ad-free experience, Activity Log, some selected Premium themes, and more!).
- All the features listed below in this guide.
If you decide you want to have more features in the future, you can upgrade your existing plan at any time.
Start with a large collection of professional WordPress themes, including our full collection of premium-designed themes. Choose your theme and make it your own with Styles. If coding is your thing, you can customize your site with CSS.
Did you know your site can help you earn money? With the Premium plan, you can display ads on your site and earn money when your visitors view those ads. Learn more about how to monetize your WordPress.com site.
Upload video files like mp4 to your website and display them beautifully in 4K resolution, with picture-in-picture, subtitles, and support for all modern devices and screens, without intrusive ads or imposing player branding. See our Video guide for more.
While all sites can automatically share posts on social media upon publishing, resharing already-published posts to promote them further is available with the Premium plan.
On the Premium plan, you can integrate your website with Google Analytics for a detailed and powerful analysis of how your site is performing.
WordPress.com allows you to accept credit and debit card payments for goods, services, subscriptions, memberships, donations, and more. Fees are lower than in the Personal plan, so as you collect more supporters, it may make sense to move to a higher plan to retain more revenue.
The Premium plan offers 13 GB of storage for your images, video, audio files, and documents. Learn more about storage on WordPress.com.
On the Premium plan, you will have 24/7 access to our Happiness Engineers. We’re here to help you build a successful website or blog. Need help? Reach out today!
