Wordpress question!

Hey guys! When you're making a website hosted by wordpress and using a free domain, do the contents of the website transfer over (basically, do I keep the website?) when you buy the domain and use a different hosting service?

You will have to transfer over the content yourself. You will require a bit of technical knowledge to do it. Here's a good tutorial:
