  Hi,

  I wanted to add new blog to my account with Personal plan. When I clicked Select on https://wordpress.com/new/plans error message was displayed:
  ‘
  Something went wrong…
  Please go back and try again. If the problem continues, please contact our support team.(opens in a new tab)
  ‘

  I tried again and again and again… no luck.

  Please help me to set up my new blog.

  Thank you.

  Hi there,

  Here are visual instructions on how to create a free .wordpress.com site:

  

  Step 1: Select email, username, and password.

  Step 2: select Blog for a .home.blog free site or Business for a .wordpress.com site.

  Step 3: Select the Topic of your site.

  Step 4: Type in the Title of site (optional).

  Step 5: Type in the full, exact site address you want including the .wordpress.com or .home.blog subdomain (ex: freeexamplesite.wordpress.com, freeexampleblog.home.blog). The first option should be the free site that you manually typed in. Click select next to that option.

  Step 6: At the very top, click the link that says: start with a free site.

  Then, your free site should be created!

  Please follow those steps and if you have any questions, let us know.

  Thanks!
