Confused about domain reset

    I couldn’t afford to renew my domain this year, so i ended it. I was aware that the page wouldn’t exist anymore, but not aware that all of the WordPress edits (themes, fonts, images, info etc.) i’d done would be gone too. Is there any way of getting that back? I do want to get my website started sometime in the future, when i’ve got the money to do so, and would hate to have to start from scratch.

    I’m sure there’s something here i’m confused about, and i’ll admit that i’m a bit of a dummy when it comes to websites. Any help is appreciated!

    WP.com: Yes
    Correct account: Yes

    Hi there!

    Can you let us know what the URL is of the site where you’re having this problem? Once we have that information, we’ll be better able to advise.

    Thank you!

    Hi, thank you for your response! The website was called Raminci.com, before the domain got shut down.

    Got it. That domain was not registered here, and as far as I can tell, the site was not hosted with us either. We aren’t able to do anything on our end but help you start fresh at this point. You’d be welcome to, so if you want to do that let us know.

    I gather you just want the old site back, though. It might not be possible, but perhaps we can point you in the right direction.

    Please contact the company you bought hosting from. If your plan with them has not expired, or if they still have the contents of your hosting account, you can ask for help changing the address on it:
    https://wordpress.org/support/article/changing-the-site-url/

    The domain company can advise about your options there, too, so if that’s a separate company, please reach out to them as well.

    Then if you need more help with WordPress, use the correct forums here:
    https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

    Here’s the difference between the free WordPress software and our managed hosting services:

    And if you do decide to host here with us and want to start over, let us know and we’ll see what we can find to help.
