  Is there any way to create a maintenance/holding page on a wordpress.com website? I need to do a lot of work on mine and I would prefer it if it was taken offline while I work on it.

  Thanks

  Hi there – I recommend setting the site to private until you’re ready for it to be live:
  Privacy Settings

  Otherwise, you could create your own temporary front page with an under construction message:
