    If you intend to host your site at wordpress.com, then you don’t need to download anything.

    If you don’t want to get involved with any technical stuff, then yes – go with wordpress.com. It is slightly more limiting that hosting your own WordPress site but, on the plus side, has a much lower learning curve. It’s also a good place to start learning if you want to eventually host your own site in 6 months or a year.

    So I must download if I intend to host elsewhere?

    Um – not always. Some hosts offer 1-click WordPress installs. But longer term, you should assume that you will need to know how to use FTP.

    It may take a lot less. It varies from person to person.
