  Hi! These messages sound like spam, but you’re referring to a redirect/hack, too. Can you tell us more about that for more context?

  Is that your real address, and do you host with that provider?

  For what it’s worth, I noticed drof22.wordpress.com is mostly empty, but if you wanted to import your content into drof22.wordpress.com, you could. We have built-in spam protection, and a security team that watches out for hacks and whatnot.

  Also, I do want to point out we are the support forum for your free site, drof22.wordpress.com. Here’s the difference between our hosting and the free WordPress software:

  Thanks supernovia! They are spam – http://drof22.com/ is with Network Solutions.

  Thanks again for the fast reply – best.

  OK. If they’re spam, you’re welcome to just ignore them, or you can use a spam blocking tool. We use Akismet on our services; I’d recommend it highly:

  Jetpack

  Going forward, these forums are primarily for sites that use our free-tier hosting. We’re a little different from the WordPress software itself:
  https://wordpress.com/go/website-building/wordpress-com-vs-wordpress-org/

  You’ll want to create an account at https://wordpress.org/support/forums/ so you’ll have access to the correct community for your site. Or, you’d be welcome to host here; your plan would get direct support, maintenance, backups, security, Akismet, and more.

  I hope this helps!
