  I was seeing how to create a new site so that I can help a friend create one. I did it easily but I want it to be HER site, not mine. If I delete it will she be able to use the same name when she creates a site?

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

  that’s what I thought. Too bad I used her site name to test it. But if I make her a contributor and administrator and set the site up properly it probably won’t appear anywhere that it is linked to my WordPress identity. Agree? It isn’t my 9Emps blog that I am concerned about. It’s a new one that I just set up.

  Have your friend register a username account only using her email address. Then add her to the blog https://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#adding-users-to-your-site by making her an Admin. https://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator After doing that you can transfer the blog to her username account by using this process. http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#transferring-your-blog-to-another-user-or-account
