  I would like to change my website from ‘Public’ to ‘Coming Soon’. I read a WordPress article explaining how to do this but I do not see the coming soon option on my side of things. Can someone please help me with this?

  Hi there!

  I’m afraid that your site, dkg.umv.mybluehost.me, is not hosted with WordPress.com. It is a site using the open-source WordPress software (from WordPress.org) but hosted with Bluehost and connected to your account via Jetpack.

  The Privacy Settings you read about are for WordPress.com hosted sites only. You will want to install a Coming Soon plugin instead.
