How do I launch a free site?

  • Unknown's avatar

    Everytime I try to launch my site, it wants me to upgrade. I just want the free version. Or does WordPress not do free public sites anymore?

  • Hi there,

    Here are visual instructions on how to create a free .wordpress.com site:

    Step 1: Select email, username, and password.
    Step 2: select Blog for a .home.blog free site or Business for a .wordpress.com site.
    Step 3: Select the Topic of your site.
    Step 4: Type in the Title of site (optional).
    Step 5: Type in the full, exact site address you want including the .wordpress.com or .home.blog subdomain (ex: freeexamplesite.wordpress.com, freeexampleblog.home.blog). The first option should be the free site that you manually typed in. Click select next to that option.
    Step 6: At the very top, click the link that says: start with a free site.

    Then, your free site should be created! Please follow those steps and if you have any questions, let us know. Thanks!
