  Hi there,

  You’ve landed on the support forums for sites hosted here at WordPress.com. I understand your site currently has this http://bryanmelhuish.mystagingwebsite.com address, but should be hosted by GoDaddy, who are separate to WordPress.com.

  Because of this, we’re not your best point of contact; in order to get help with your website, we do suggest contacting either GoDaddy’s own customer support, or alternatively the community forums of WordPress.org:

  • https://godaddy.com/help/contact-us
  • https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

  To clarify, there are two ways to use WordPress, you can either use the WordPress software downloaded from WordPress.org onto a web host (also known as self-hosted), or you may host your site with us here at WordPress.com. For reference, you can learn more about the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org here:
