    I created a blog yesterday using WordPress. I received the email to activate my account and clicked on it but it never activated my account. I have tried to resend the email but I never have received the email (I’ve resent it about 10 times). I am a teacher and use my blog to keep in touch with the parents in my class and would like to be able to start using my blog as soon as possible. I am beginning to get frustrated with the trouble already caused from this problem.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Every WordPress.COM blog has a sole owner. It is the person with the WordPress.COM username account who registered the blog under that username account and a single associated email address, and who is the original Admin of the blogs registered under that username account. You can create one gravatar for every username account that applies to all blogs registered under the same username account and email address.
    https://en.support.wordpress.com/email-address/
    https://en.support.wordpress.com/email-notifications/

    There is a single email address that can be used on only one wordpress.COM username account and not on any others, regardless of how many blogs are registered under that username account.

    The wordpress.COM blog’s owner can change the relevant email address on their accounts page at https://wordpress.com/me/account at any time.

    For Issues Changing your Email Address see https://en.support.wordpress.com/email-address/#issues-changing-your-email-address

    If you cannot locate the email verification check your email client spam filter and if you use gmail or google apps please consult these guides:
    https://en.support.wordpress.com/email-address/
