  Good morning –

  Are you trying to activate cquacct11059.home.blog? You don’t need a plan, that site is already set up as a free site.

  Let me know if it’s a different site that you’re working on. In general, you would only need a plan if there’s a custom domain that you want to use. Otherwise, you can just keep on the free option.

  I forgot to include the instructions for launching the site. Those are outlined here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/#new-sites-are-private-by-default
