Building a Site
-
I am new to this. I already have a website but want to create a new one on WordPress. However, I want the old website to stay up and running until I am able to take the WordPress site live. Is this possible?

You certainly can get your site set up here before switching your domain over!
When you sign up for a new site, we give you a free subdomain (*.wordpress.com) that you can use to start building your new site.
If you are moving an existing site, this guide to migrating your site to WordPress.com may also be helpful:

Note that you will need to have a paid plan to use your domain with your WordPress.com site. You can compare the different plan levels here:

Once you have purchased a plan, here is a support document that will explain how to connect your domain:

Take a look at those links and let us know if anything is unclear or you have any further questions.
