    It sounds very much like you have a second WordPress.com account.

    If you can post any email you might have used for other accounts, I can check to see if there are other accounts out there. If you post emails here, only staff can see them, and they will be hidden from other users.

    I promise you I have ONE account. Through the email (email visible only to moderators and staff) I have never created another account. I have never even tried or thought to make a second account so that is not possible. All I was doing was trying to figure out how to migrate my page from .com to .org.

    I will tell you exactly what I did because obviously I really messed up
    I went to bluehost where I purchased my domain name through and logged in. Under the hosting tab I noticed the WordPress Icon and clicked it. It brought to me a page with the tab One-click Installs. There was an Import button and an Install button and I clicked install and that was it. I went to my page and noticed my blog was no longer there and it was as if I was just starting from the beginning. I then uninstalled it thinking that would word. It didn’t. So now when I go to my website (www.desireandattire.com), it shows up with information about bluehost.

    I mean, if I have to, I will give you my name and password for what I used to log into WordPress.com if you really need it. I’m sorry if I am not making sense but that is word for word what I did and I have never created another account. The thought never crossed my mind once.

    If you can’t help me or direct me with that information then I’m not really sure what else I can provide for you to help this process. Since I’m so new to WordPress I’m not familiar with much yet.

    Can anyone help? Or did I mess up so bad that I have to start over? :(

    If you cannot give us the whatever.wordpress.com URL then we cannot help you. Period.

    Since you created your desireesavo817 account here on WordPress.com on April 29th, you have never had any blog listed with us other than the self-hosted Jetpack site at desireandattire.com. If you have only had a website for the past two months, then that’s the only site you’ve had. It’s possible that you logged into this site using Jetpack Single Sign On, that allows you to use your WordPress.com credentials to log into your self-hosted site.

    If you had a site here at WordPress.com that was separate from that site or that dates earlier than April 29th, it must have been at a different address or under a different user account.

    If your initial site was only two months old, then you may wish to contact Bluehost for further assistance and see if you have a backup on their servers, or if perhaps you pointed your domain to the wrong location.

    After installing the “Jetpack ” plugin, I wanted to subscribe to “VideoPress” for my blog (advocacyinitiative.org) but the blog is not showing up under the “Get VideoPress” section (http://store.wordpress.com/premium-upgrades/videopress/)… I really need help.

    @sylmurray since your issue is unrelated to this one, could you please post a separate thread for assistance?
