Free blog
-
Dear WordPress,
I love your site but I have a problem: I have been using a free blog I created on WordPress for about two years. I wanted to create another free site to share with my sister and so I clicked ‘create a new site’ and I edited it and everything. The blog is all set up, except for the fact that it wasn’t launched yet. So I clicked ‘launch’ and although I already picked an address ending in ‘.wordpress.com’ It asked me to pick a new address. All the options it gave me I had to pay like example.com or example.blog but there was no example.wordpress.com. there was nothing free. Can you help me?The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there, what’s the address of the site you need help with?
In general when you click the “Launch” button at https://wordpress.com/checklist/mysite.wordpress.com (replace with your site address) do you land on a page asking you to “Give your site an address”?
If so, the bottom choice on that page should be the free site address you chose when you created your site, and has a “skip purchase” notice on the right side. If you don’t see that option, please take a screenshot and upload it to your site’s Media Library and share the link here.
If you do see that “skip purchase” option and continue to get additional prompts to upgrade, keep clicking the free site option.
Another way to launch your site is to from your site settings at https://wordpress.com/settings/general/mysite.wordpress.com (replace with your site address) by changing your site privacy from Private to Public.
If you are not successful in launching your free site in either option, please come back to this thread and let us know.
