  Hello. I already have a blog on WordPress. However, I would like to know if I can start another one to write a novel, with the settings at ‘Private’ so that no one else can have access to it. I’m not happy about using writer’s software in case of a fault with my computer, so would feel more secure if my work was on an independent website. Would this be allowed? Thank you.

  Yes. To create two username accounts and two blogs that are not associated take these steps.

  1. Log out and clear your browser cache and cookies.

  2. Without logging in create a new username account using a different email address.

  3. Then register a new blog under it and make the visibility private. To change blog visibility to Private go to > Settings > Reading scroll to Blog Visibility and choose option 3 .
