  Hi there!

  I don’t see any sites under your account, what’s the address of the site you’re working on?
  Are you sure you created a WordPress.com site and not a self-hosted one?

  To clear up any further confusion, there is WordPress.com and WordPress.org, and they are two different entities.

  We, WordPress.com, are a cloud-based platform where we manage WordPress sites, whereas WordPress.org is stand-alone software that you can download and self-host with any other hosting.

  You can find more details about WordPress.com and WordPress.org on this support page:
