  Hey there,

  Can you provide the URL or domain name of the site so that the team can investigate further.

  Normally creating a site on WordPress.com is free. There are plans you can upgrade to if you are looking to use additional features.

  @lynnecain, I don’t see any sites under your account; what is the address of the one you’re trying to launch?

  To create a free site, you have to make sure you’re choosing a free subdomain (like one ending with .wordpress.com). If you choose a custom domain (like .com), you’ll be asked to purchase one of the paid plans.
