  I am trying to out source my site to be designed by a professional, but I am unsure what address to give them to enable them to work on it, can you please help?
  Thank you,

  Hey sceme,

  What is the link to your site? I would suggest adding them as a user.

  First, you will need to invite them: Configure -> People -> Invite User (You can find this on the left hand side a few items below Blog Posts)

  From there you will need to enter their WordPress username or email and assign them a role (Administrator, Editor, Author, Contributor, or Viewer).

  Once they have accepted the email they should be able to get to work!

  Additionally, here is a helpful guide: https://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#adding-users-to-your-site

  I hope this helps!

  In addition, here are some helpful resources should you want to work on your site:

  https://learn.wordpress.com/
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/video-tutorials/
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/five-step-website-setup/

  I personally find it fun to learn the ins and outs of WordPress.com!

  Hi, Thank you for your advice but the problem with that, is, they are on an agency and it would not be possible to pass through emails and such!

  I didn’t find it much fun, I spent days trying to figure out how to do it and I was following a step by step guide, didn’t work for me, I’m just hopeless with techy stuff!

  Hi again sceme,

  Following up here. Another option you have is to login to your site by adding /wp-admin to your URL. For example, https//SITENAME.com/wp-admin

  From there, along the left-hand side, you will go to Users -> Add New

  The next step is to enter the agency’s information (Username, Email, Role, Etc.). Please make a note of the Username/Password you create as this will be shared with the agency.

  Once this has been completed you can share the newly created login credentials with the agency. They will access your site by going to the same URL used to create their credentials.

  Please let me know if you have any questions. In addition, if anything doesn’t make sense and you would like further clarification, don’t hesitate to let me know!

  I hope this is helpful.
