  Hi,

  I trying to connect Jetpak with WordPress but need to create a new WordPress.com account first. However, when I click on register it still says enter you username or email and password to login. It wont let me create/register a new account. What can i do?

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

  First create an account on wordpress.com then go through your process.

  Hi there,

  You don’t need to create a new WordPress.com account to connect a Jetpack site. You can use this account to connect your Jetpack site. Just log into the WP-Admin dashboard of your self-hosted site, install the Jetpack plugin, and click Connect with WordPress.com. That will automatically connect it with this account.

  If you need to have a separate account for your Jetpack site, log out of this account first, then use the following link to create a new account without creating a new site:
