  I was recently advised by your forum that my website (which was set up by others on my behalf) is a self-hosted version of WordPress.
  If I want to convert this to be hosted by WordPress, what is the process?
  Thank you

  I have another current issue, I cannot access my website through any search domain of even my log-in access for it.

  Can anyone advise in relation to this?

  It appears that it keeps coming up as a non-secure site.

  Thanks

  That’s correct, brysenmann.com is a self hosted WordPress.org site. Please contact your host if you are unable to login at http://www.brysenmann.com/wp-admin, as the login details are stored on their servers.

  They will also be able to give advice about SSL certificates, which will mean your site loads over https:// (secure) instead of http://.
