11,228 PointsWhen you say i can install it for free on my server, do you mean like xampp? In that case can i sell physical products online with woocommerce through wordpress online for free?

13,401 PointsHi, If you want to install WP locally, yes, you have to use XAMPP https://teamtreehouse.com/library/how-to-install-wordpress-on-your-computer https://teamtreehouse.com/library/local-wordpress-development To move from .com to .org https://teamtreehouse.com/library/moving-from-wordpresscom-to-selfhosted-wordpressorg
The same way you install in local, you can install in your own hosting. There is a course for that too, but I can't remember it right now. I hope this links help you.

13,401 PointsYes, basically, you can sell your own products (physical or digital) in your woocommerce store for free. You have to pay for a hosting and domain :D
