  Hi, you’re probably trying to add a custom domain and those need a paid plan. Choose a free subdomain and free plan and you won’t be charged anything.

  @nr1admin,

  To obtain a free site at creation, after clicking the “Launch Site” button you have to choose the “Skip Purchase” option.

  Before you get to the page with “Launch Site” option, when you are offered the various plans on a page that says at the top, “Pick a plan that’s right for you. Choose a plan. Upgrade as you grow,” above the plans and below the title you’ll find an option (link) to “Start with a free site.” Clicking that will create the free site, and you may either launch it immediately or when you’re ready to launch it.

  When you do decide to launch the site, you will again be presented with paid plan options. You may ignore those and choose the “Skip Purchase” option. I’m going to try make a screen recording to demonstrate the steps involved in creating a free site that I’ve described here.

  Also, even after choosing to “Skip Purchase” as described above, a third attempt to sell you a plan is made as different version of the Plans page returns with the heading “Almost there, pick a plan that’s right for you. Upgrade as you grow.” My, aren’t they persistent? The way to avoid purchase this time is to choose the option/link “Continue with your free site.”
