This year’s Black Friday special on WordPress.com is our biggest yet. Today you can add any upgrade to your blog for a free 14-day trial.
The special sale covers all of Friday, November 29, for all US time zones. Sale started midnight today, and ends on 12:00AM PST on Saturday, November 30.
A free trial with no strings attached is a great way to get to know our different WordPress.com plans:
- WordPress.com Premium ($99 yearly), includes all our blog upgrades: more design customizations, video uploads, more space — and no ads.
- WordPress.com Business ($299 yearly), includes everything that WordPress.com Premium offers, as well as unlimited access to all our premium themes, unlimited storage space, and real-time live chat support — right from the dashboard.
- WordPress.com Enterprise ($500 monthly), includes everything offered by the other plans, as well as access to more than 100 plugins to customize your branding, better track your audience, integrate with social media services, and more.
Go to Store in your dashboard to see all our plans and other upgrades, and try them out for free.

For technical reasons, domain upgrades are not included in this offer. If the upgrade plan you’re trying out includes a custom domain credit, like WordPress.com Premium or WordPress.com Business, the credit will be disabled for the duration of the trial. The credit will become available if you choose to purchase the plan when the trial is over.
With this offer, we hope that more of you will be able to try out our great upgrades this year.
Happy holidays!
This is epic! Thanks. I’ve always wanted to upgrade my blog but didn’t have the money.
If I decide not to buy it after the trail, will my credit card be automatically charged?
No, we’ll get in touch with you one day before the end of the trial, and you’ll have the option to cancel.
Will changes made during trial upgrades (like font changes) remain effective after 14 days, or will they revert back to pre-trial settings?
If you try out Custom Design, any changes you make during the trial will be kept. Custom Design is required for the changes to be visible on your blog, so if you like what you did with it, you can purchase it at the end of the trial.
Black friday here I come!
You guys ROCK!
This is wonderful, thank you.
Woohoo! Thanks WordPress! I’m excited to have a play around with the custom CSS on my blog. 🙂
I don’t know why…but Dave Robison’s comment made me LOL..in real…! Maybe because it’s really quite true…lol
Can someone explain the purpose/benefits of a WordPress.com Business plan?
One of our happiness engineers wrote about WordPress.com Business recently.
Great. Thanks!
