Listen to article

GPD MicroPC 2 with Intel Core 3 N350 announced Nintendo Direct to unveil Switch 2 games for second half of 2026 iOS 27 Beta Is Out, But You'll Need to Join a Waitlist to Try the New Siri AI Everything Apple Announced at WWDC 2026 Image Playground, Photo Spacial Reframe and New Editing Tools in iOS 27

Everybody seems to be getting their WordPress Golden Ticket lately. The Golden ticket serves are your invite to get an account into the new blog hosting service of WordPress.com.

Got mine in the mail just this morning. I checked it out right away and didn’t find anything new except for a sleekier WP Dashboard.

Anyway, there are a lot of reviews about it out there that I don’t need to make another one of my own. Besides, it seems everyone else has an account already.

Leave a post if you want an invite though.

Update 2:

Hello Guys,

You can now get a WordPress.com account by going to www.wordpress.com and download the Flock browser.

Once youâ€™ve installed and launched Flock, go to this URL: http://wordpress.com/flock/

Update:

Guys, let’s do a pay it forward for the Golden Ticket. I sent an invite to one of you. Once you signed up to WordPress, you also get an extra invite. Please use that to invite one more from those who posted a comment here.

And so on and so forth. That way, everyone will get their invite. Hope this idea helps. :)

I’d love an invite!

I currently use Typepad Pro, but have run into too many customisation limitations for my liking.

I now need to get Movable Type, so that I can use third party plug-ins to work around these limitations. But as we have a small shop on one of our Typepad sites, we have to go for the muchos expensive commercial licence.

So I’d love to check out the customisation options in this new hosted WordPress!

I would really, really like to get going on the new WordPress deal. Blogsome and Typepad are tempting right now, and I just deleted my blog from Blogger’s library. I miss posting… help me out with an invite, please – I’m not one of those bloggers that just writes about themself all the time!

I got my golden ticket for Lucy! Thanks :)

taorist · 21 years ago

Can I have one please?

suzanne · 21 years ago

Hi –
I would love a golden ticket!

I would like it to be for:

Lucy.wordpress.com

please… if you still have it :)

thank you

schilke · 21 years ago

oh, I would be interested into an invite also as I subscribed to blogger – but not really like it… – I’ve recently lost my free hosting coop which offered to me much more flexibility :(

I know WP from the beginning and that would be a pretty cool thing.

Abe Olandres Editor-in-chief · 21 years ago

Hi Guys,

I’ve already sent word to those who were given an invite earlier to pass it along to the commenters here.

mr_d · 21 years ago

ei oi. pwede rin maki limos ng wp invite…

anton · 21 years ago

For some reason, I still have not gotten my WP invite.

can you send me an invite also, thanks!

Abe Olandres Editor-in-chief · 21 years ago

Just sent an invite. Please do post your email address here so that everyone will be able to check it and pay-it-forward the Golden Ticket.

Thanks!

hey yugz, imbitahin mo ako.

Jaypee · 21 years ago

golden ticket? parang yon sa Willy Wonka movie..hehe..sana makatanggap din ako nyan. :D

taorist · 21 years ago

I am thinking of going to WP. Kaya lang i don’t have the tech knowledge to do perl, etc. With WYSIWIG and sila mag we-webhost baka mag-take off yan!
Mature, clean, crisp kasi ang dating ng WP. Eh.

Can I beg for an invite?

jangelo · 21 years ago

Got mine in the mail this morning, too.

No need to publicize the URL, though. I think it will be predictable enough.

Cheers.

I just started a Blogspot blog and forgot how much I hate it. I use WordPress on a friend’s blog and, because of my jealously, am ready to do unnatural things for my own WordPress.com blog. I’ll put it to good use.
