Is there another way to create an account besides signing up through steemit? I didn't know but I would be very interested because my girlfriend's been trying to get an account for weeks.

You can mine a new Steem account, or pay a service to do it for you.

Steemit essentially mined your account. But didn't charged you for it.

Ah ok, thanks for explaing.

Yes you can buy one from anon steem

Ah so that really works? I was wondering about that
