  My website saaranshsethi.com is expired now, It was a WordPress site with around 10-15 blogs on it. Is there any possible way through which I can get backup of my blogs?

  Hi there!

  I can’t seem to find any account that would use the domain saaranshsethi.com. Do you remember the username for the account in question?

  Please note that these forums are for WordPress.com hosted sites only. If your site was using the open-source WordPress.org software you need to reach out directly to your previous host or post on these forums:

  My username was saaranshsethi, I still have a lot of emails from WordPress in my email account.

  Thanks for that, I think there might be some confusion between WordPress.com and WordPress.org.

  We, WordPress.com are a cloud-based platform where we manage WordPress sites. Whereas WordPress.org is a stand-alone software that you can download and self-host with any other hosting.

  You can find more details about WordPress.com and WordPress.org on this support page:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  I do not see an account saaranshsethi on WordPress.com so it’s either WordPress.org or the name was different. Check the emails you mentioned, did they come from WordPress.com? If so, you can check out this page and fill out the Account Recovery form to regain access to the account:
