  Hi there,

  Our domain provider is experiencing some technical issues, so new domain registrations and transfers are not possible at this time. Please check every few hours – this has been going on for a while and we unfortunately don’t have a timeline on when things will be working again.

  Meanwhile you can create your site at a free address for now. On the domains step, search for a key word rather than a full domain, and you’ll see the option for a free *.wordpress.com or .blog address. Then you can buy the plan you want and start setting up your site at that address, and add the domain once that is possible again.
