  Hi, @flowermeticulousedf534d3aa!
  
  I checked your site and noticed that it’s not hosted on WordPress.com but is instead a self-hosted WordPress.org site, as you can see here:

  https://wordpress.com/site-profiler/rigbrottningarboga.se

  In this case, I’d suggest reaching out to your site host—they should be able to assist you with this.

  And if you need more help, feel free to ask your question on the WordPress.org community forums at this link:

   https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/ 

  That forum is perfect for sites like yours that use WordPress software but aren’t hosted with WordPress.com.

  If you’re curious about the difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org, this guide explains it quite well:

  Please let us know if you have any questions or need any extra help, and we’ll be happy to assist you.

  Hi, @flowermeticulousedf534d3aa!

  Hi,

  I checked your site and it’s a self-hosted WordPress.org site, not hosted on WordPress.com: Site Profiler.

  Since it’s self-hosted, WordPress.com cannot delete or manage it. Here’s what you should do:

  1. Contact your web host – They can help you regain access or close the site.
  2. Check the WordPress.org support forums for guidance: https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/
  3. Learn the difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org here: https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/

  Following these steps will help you safely secure or remove your site.
