    Contact the web host who hosted that site.

    That site is not hosted by wordpress.COM. It is not on our servers. We provide support only for wordpress.COM hosted sites. You are posting to the wrong support forum.

    WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

    Our support docs do not apply to
    (1) local installs of wordpress.ORG software on your own server or
    (2) wordpress.ORG software installs on paid hosting, and we do not provide support for them at wordpress.COM.
    (3) sites linked to wordpress.COM accounts with the Jetpack plugin so they display on the My Sites wordpress.com account page.

    re: wordpress.org support
    The wordpress.ORG support forum is at http://wordpress.org/support. The wordpress.ORG login link is here https://login.wordpress.org/ If you do not have an account yet then click Create an account https://login.wordpress.org/register/ and if you have lost an account password click Lost password? https://login.wordpress.org/lostpassword/
    WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page
    See also https://apps.wordpress.org/support/ for app support.

    re: Jetpack support
    Some Jetpack solutions are here http://jetpack.com/support/
    Others are in the Jetpack support forum at WordPress.org
    http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jetpack
    However, if help cannot be found at either one then they can file a Jetpack support ticket here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/?jetpack=needs-service

    I used wordpress.com to build this site and bluehost to buy the domain

    Yes and that means it was a wordpress.ORG software install on paid hosting, and we do not provide support for them at wordpress.COM. That site is not hosted by wordpress.COM. It is not on our servers. Contact Bluehost.

    I guess I don’t understand because I used wordpress.com to build the entire site

    Just to clarify, every custom domain name used here is mapped to an underlying WordPressdotcom site address. What was the WordPressdotcom site address that you registered?

    When you create a backup/export file on WordPressdotcom, depending on the size of the file it is either immediately downloaded to your computer or you receive an email from WordPress.com with a download link in it.

  • Hi there,

    As our volunteers have pointed out, redandwhiskey.com is NOT a WordPress.com site. You are able to manage that site via your WordPress.com account because it’s connected here with the Jetpack plugin, but that site is using the self-hosted WordPress.org software.

    Your domain, redandwhiskey.com, is registered with Fastdomain.com, and your site itself is hosted on Bluehost’s servers.

    If you have a full backup of your site, you should be able to restore it by first setting up a new WordPress install with Bluehost, and then using a tool like Filezilla to upload your backup to that site via FTP/SFTP. Bluehost support should be able to help you with that.

    The backup of your site cannot be uploaded at WordPress.com, and we don’t have access to Bluehost’s servers to help you with this.
