  I deleted my website via Bluehost by mistake. I need to reconnect my domain back to WordPress. When I try to reconnect it is asking me to upgrade my plan. Do I have to start all the way over to reconnect & purchase a plan?

  I attempted to follow the instructions to connect but it sends me to the plans. Is there a way to reconnect my domain without having to purchase upgrade again?

  NOTE: I do not need the free version of my website. See below for the domain I already own.

  Hi there,

  You can connect your existing domain only with a paid WordPress.com plan.

  Here are the steps to connect your existing domain to the WordPress.com site :

  Hope this helps! :)

  Thanks! So basically i had to pay twice for something because i deleted it in error?

  Now that i purchased a plan, what next? I know my domain has to be verified first and that takes 72 hours.

  Once it is verified, how does the connection between my bluehost and wordpress occur? My bluehost shows my domain but website is not connected. What do I do? I really messed up with this. Geesh.
