misunderstanding, Wordpress.com does have a free account but you
can't have your own domain with it. It should not require you sign
up for a paid plan unless you want something that's not included
in the free plan such as your own domain.<br>

have to buy a plan. The cheapest is $3/month for a blogger
account.

<div>I'm trying to set up a freebie blog for a community
group on WordPress.com. It would be hosted on
WordPress.com and not on a domain of ours. But after it
has me set everything up, it's requiring me to buy a
domain sand sign up for a paid monthly plan. How an I set
up a freebie account as I've done in the past?</div>
