  We offer free meditation to the public. We are computer-challenged. We are interested in a simple, low-profile website, capable of being accessed by anyone doing a routine search of Google. This website should describe our meditation group, perhaps include some photos, our personal data, plus contact information. Blogging on this website would be a secondary goal for us. Can we do this with WordPress.com? Thank you! Tim and Joan.
  Blog url: http://openmindmeditation.wordpress.com/

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

  Only you can decide if it’s right for you, but I don’t see why not. It sounds like you want a website more than a blog, and that can be done here. See this:

  also, it would help you to know how to use the site. So see this:

  Homepage

  Be aware, though, that if you’re going to rely on people coming to you via Google searches, it can take several weeks before a new blog or website will get noticed.

  Also, see this to check that the sort of blog or site you want to create is the type that WordPress.com finds acceptable:
