  Hi there,

  If you are seeing the coming soon page when looking at your site, then most likely you are using WordPress.com.

  You also need to publish your site, besides posting to the blog.

  You can make your site public in the Settings. Here: https://wordpress.com/settings/general/

  (Don’t forget to click “Save Settings” after you changed it.)

  You can read about this step here:
  https://wordpress.com/support/settings/#privacy

  Hope this helps!

  Hi,

  To add to what has already been said if you are new to using WordPress.com I would recommend reading this guide that teaches how to use WordPress.com

  Hi there,

  What is your site’s URL?

  You are posting here using a WordPress.com username account, snoopy19900114. This account was created on WordPress.com a month ago, but you haven’t accessed it since then. You’ve never created any sites with us on WordPress.com using this account.

  If you have a WordPress.com site, you used a different account to create it. But to tell you whether you have a WordPress.com site or not I’d have to know what site you’re speaking of.

  
  @csabarakasz, @ryrhino00, sometimes the best answer is to ask a question instead, as it’s impossible to correctly answer a question like this if you don’t have all the information you need :)

  If you are seeing the coming soon page when looking at your site, then most likely you are using WordPress.com.

  Many hosting providers display a Coming Soon page for sites under development, and require sites to be launched before they’re publicly visible, including, for example, one of the biggest hosting providers on the web, Bluehost.com. So this is not unique to, and not necessarily an indication that the site is hosted on WordPress.com.
