  I’m trying to create a second blog, but I can’t seem to choose any free option. I’ve tried the “Add new site” button, the “add domain” button and I’ve followed the support pages precisely up until the site name section where I should be able to choose “name.wordpress.com) there’s no option for it. I’ve tried manually typing in the “name.wordpress.com” and still can’t make a second free site. Everything is taking me to plans with no option for the free “wordpress.com” extension. Are multiple free plan sites not allowed anymore? What am I doing wrong?

  Hi ferventlearning,

  Sounds like you’re doing it the right way:

  https://en.support.wordpress.com/create-a-blog/

  I just tried myself and when you get to the “Give your site an address” section choose your domain. The free option will show up on top. Perhaps try and different name?

  Hope this helps!

  Hi Doohane1,

  After your post, I decided to mix up my input. Turns out if I choose business instead of blog, I got the free option. I went back and tried multiple times with the blog option and it didn’t work. Not sure if it’s me specifically, or if it’s just the new set up. Thank you for our help.
