  Hello

  I need to delete my wordpress.com site.

  I accidentally created it and paid the business plan which I cancelled immediately as I actually wanted a wordpress.org site which I setup.

  this now conflicts with that so when I try to access my wordpress.org site it automatically takes me to the wordpress.com site

  WP.com: Yes
  Jetpack: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hello –

  Sure thing. I can help you point the domain to your other hosting provider.

  Can you tell me more about why you’re leaving? I’d feel awful if I didn’t explain some of the differences before you finalize this switch.

  On WordPress.com we offer a managed environment. This means you can learn and grow inside a safety net. Our team handles all of the back end details that need attention for a site to have optimal performance. These are tasks like security, spam, seo, ssl, fastest global hosting, mobile optimization, and more.

  When running this project on another host those items will fall to you for management. Some of these will cost additional money with plugins and management solutions. It’s also going to cost you more time and energy to sort through and keep updated.

  Even if you aren’t going to stay on WordPress.com, we want you to find the right fit and be successful.

  Go to My Sites – Domains – DNS and there you can enter the hosting details for the other provider. https://wordpress.com/support/domains/change-name-servers/

  Be well!
