domain change
-
I let my domain name expire over a year ago and apparently someone else has it now. Can you tell me how I go about setting up my old website under the new domain? I originally set up the website following youtube videos because I have no idea what I’m doing. I managed to set up google advertising and had amazon affiliate links as well (I don’t think that will be affected). I’m trying to decide if it’s worth ever setting this back up or if it is too much for me to figure out. My original domain was aldiproductreview.com through HostGator.
The site I need help with is aldiproductreview.home.blog.

Hi! If the site was through Hostgator, I’d recommend reaching out to them first to see if your hosting is still with them, or if you have a backup. You might even have a backup of your own — typically Hostgator would have let you download a .tar.gz file if you want to search your system for that. If they do have the site, you’d just need to change its url. They can help with that:
