  Can i create a site before i point it to the domain i already own.

  I have my websites created through another business but i own the domains, i want to leave the sites going while i create new sites with wordpress is that possible, like i want to create the site before i cancel them with the current company that made them for me.

  Hi there,

  You can create a new WordPress.com site without connecting your domain, yes.

  All sites on WordPress.com get a free WordPress.com or .blog subdomain when the site is created, that functions just like any regular subdomain, and your site is fully online and accessible at that subdomain (provided you set it to public).

  So you can experiment and build your site at that free address, even upgrade the site while still using the free address, and only switch the domain over to us once you’re ready.
