  https://joesbowman948284300.wordpress.com/ is a free site here.

  A blog is just a type of website, so all you need to do is make a few adjustments.

  You’re on the Blank Canvas theme, which is definitely more of a website than blog type of theme. I recommend starting by switching themes, try https://wordpress.com/theme/twentytwentyone and that should open up many more possibilities. :)

  If you’re just starting out with WordPress.com, I recommend you go through our new user’s guide: https://wordpress.com/learn/

  In just a few quick steps, you’ll learn about all the best and most useful features of WordPress.com, with lots of screenshots and videos.
