  After some glitch that Bluehost helped me fix, my normal site, josephhess.com, is working and viewable and “Proudly powered by WordPress”. However, before I enlisted their help, I was trying to fix it on my own by following the Jetpack instructions to disconnect and reconnect, and somehow created a site called “josephhesscom.wordpress.com”. For some reason, it now claims that my paid registration for the domain “josephhess.com” is linked to it, so it will not let me delete it. Registration for my domain “josephhess.com” should be linked to my website “josephhess.com” and nothing else, and the wordpress.com site deleted. Please help.

  WP.com: Yes
  Jetpack: No
  Correct account: Yes

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Please try again; you can now delete the WordPress.com site without canceling the domain.
