  I had to reinstall WordPress, and I lost my entire site, it’s starting from the beginning! How do I restore my previous site?

  Hello @nerdpurpose

  Looking at your domain (
  http://nerdpurpose.com/), I see that this is not hosted on WordPress.com, but on BlueHost. What this tells us is that you are WordPress.org user, not a WordPress.com user.

  This forum is dedicated only to the websites hosted on WordPress.com.

  WordPress.org is the self-hosted version of WordPress.com. To learn more about the difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org, check this link: https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  The support forums for WordPress.org can be found here: https://wordpress.org/support/. Feel free to follow the link and create a new support request, like you did here.

  You should get in touch with your host (BlueHost) as they would be able to help in a situation like this as they have access to your site’s files and database. You can contact them HERE: https://www.bluehost.com/contact

  Hope this helps!

  Bluehost might also be able to restore your old website, if it was on their servers before, too.
