    Hi there,

    Apologies, but we can’t help with your issue directly because we don’t host rejuvenatethis.com on our WordPress.com managed hosting.

    To explain, we are a fully managed hosting provider and use a custom server environment that is optimized for WordPress, provides built-in security and performance improvements, as well as in-house support for your site questions. You can learn more about the performance and security benefits of our managed hosting here: https://wordpress.com/hosting/

    Because of the way we’ve optimized our service, we also use a customized version of WordPress that is different (under the hood) from what you use at your current provider. As a result, we do not have access to your site and are not familiar with the source of your issue.

    You definitely have the option to move your site to us so we can provide in-house help, and we offer a migration plugin that will help you move your site to our managed hosting in just a few clicks. We offer vide hosting for all sites on our Premium, Business, and Commerce plans

    For example, since you already have the Jetpack plugin on your site, you can upgrade to get VideoPress functionality: https://jetpack.com/videopress/

    You may also with to contact your host (Bluehost) to see what video hosting recommendations they offer for your WordPress site with them.

    Thanks!
