Hi there,
To start a new site, go to My Site. There will be a page saying ‘You don’t have any WordPress sites yet’ with an option to create one. Select this and you can create a new site (with a domain name).
Alternatively you can create a new site by going to https://wordpress.com/start/.
There’s a support post on this:
https://wordpress.com/support/start/If you’re not sure about paid plans/domains yet, when you start to create your site, there are one or two options for free domain names, listed under the recommended domain name. When you are asked to select a plan, there is an option to have a free plan at the top of the page.
You can also publish the site for free. When you go to make your site live, it will ask again if you want to buy a domain name or a plan, but there are options to keep the free domain name and plan.
If you want to try out features of the paid plans, that will require you to upgrade, but WordPress offers a full 30-day refund on all plans if you aren’t happy with it. You can read more about plans here: https://wordpress.com/support/plan-features/I hope this helps!
Just a reminder that this forum is for WordPress.com hosted websites. If you use the open-source WordPress software, you’ll need to go to their forum to get help: https://wordpress.org/support/forums/
If you want to know more about the differences between WordPress.com and the WordPress software you can read the support post:
