Please help!

    I bought a domain name through another site and then signed up through that site for webhosting via wordpress. I paid for the webhosting but then got so frustrated with the fact I couldn’t find my site that I deleted the order from my doman register. I wish to transfer the whole package, domain name registry and wordpress sign up to here.
    I hate feeling so stupid.

    Hi ostarayoga,

    Don’t worry, I’ll try and point you in the right direction.

    Creating a WordPress site on another host means you were using WordPress.org software (not WordPress.com). We have some information about the differences between the two here:

    WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

    I deleted the order from my doman register.

    Please contact the domain provider to see whether they are able to restore it for you. Cancelling a domain means giving up ownership so I can’t say whether that’s something they will definitely able to do. For example, it may have already been released (in which case it can be registered through us). But they should be able to tell you for sure.

    If you do that first and let me know what they say, I can look at your options for creating a site and using the domain on WordPress.com :)
