wp – backup
Backing up your site is essential. The worst thing that can happen is to work for a couple of months getting things the way you want them, and then losing everything because you did not back it up.
There are many plugins available for WordPress backup. I am currently using the free version of Updraft plus.
SASP – Domains
We offer a single domain free SSL which you can install it on any 1 main domain OR any 1 subdomain, if you want more SSL you have to purchase SSL additionally.
In order to install a SSL you must have an emil working on the domain
My SASP now uses Namecheap as the domain provider

Getting Started Tutorial
This tutorial recommends you do not use free site. I would strongly urge anyone w/o a lot of internet development experience to use a free site to determine if you really want to set up a website. Once you get into it you will find it a lot more difficult than you may have expected.
WordPress.com has a free site that is a great place to get you feet wet.
