  I only want the blog to be available to an email list of friends and family, no social media linkage. how do I do this?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You’ll find very good information in the Support, https://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/

  Hi there,

  This is mentioned in the support doc @startmees linked to for you, but if you set your site to private, anyone you invite to have access will need to have their own WordPress.com username account.

  They can use this link to register a username without creating their own sites:
