The WordPress app on iOS lets users build and manage a website from the iPad or the iPhone and it’s free. Separately though, WordPress.com sells domain names and fancier website packages. WordPress founder Matt Mullenweg has accused Apple of cutting off updates to the app until and unless he adds in-app purchases so as Apple can make 30% of the money. Apple charges all iOS apps with in-app transactions a 30% fee on all the money they make.
