    Hey there –

    Thanks for getting in touch.

    Looking at that site I can see it’s hosted on Bluehost. It’s not using our managed hosting environment from WordPress.com.

    For help, I would contact them first. Otherwise, there’s a volunteer network available for folks who run their own WordPress installations, which is how you’re set up. That is available at https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

    On WordPress.com our team offers a managed hosting environment. We do the heavy lifting, not you! This means that we handle all the back end details of the site. Things like back ups, updates, security, spam, seo, ssl, mobile optimization, top notch hosting specs, and sorting out any errors or bugs that pop up along the way. When you run a stand alone WordPress installation, like what y’all have set up, then all of those details fall on to you – so instead of being able to focus on content you spend a ton of time and frustration fixing these sort of issues.

    All of our hosting plans are available on https://wordpress.com/pricing/ The entry level option is our personal plan which is $4/month and includes what I’ve mentioned above. This plan is typically like $1/month more than the value based hosting that folks use (and find themselves in these situations). You’ll be able to connect that domain to this plan. Write back if you have any other questions about what our managed hosting environment can do for you, and this project. Cheers! Be well.

    I pressed Enter too soon and forgot to include the link to the plan.
