Hi there,

Domain names are registered for a full year from the moment you purchase it, and they can’t be edited after the fact.

However, if you only registered it yesterday, you might still be able to get a refund if you cancel it, and then you can register a different domain instead. But you’ll need to contact support over at Bluehost.com to ask about this, as that’s the company you bought your domain from.

The forum you’re posting in now is for WordPress.com, a completely different company and hosting provider. You have an account with us because your site is connected here through the Jetpack plugin, but your site is hosted at Bluehost.com and they’re the people you’re paying for your domain and web hosting.

Hi there!

It seems that you acquired your domain from bluehost.com and not from WordPress.com, I would suggest contacting their support as soon as possible as domain refunds are time-sensitive.
Follow this link to contact support: https://www.bluehost.com/help

And you can read their refunds policy here: https://www.bluehost.com/help/article/refund-policy

Hope this helps!
