  I built a website in April 2013 in WordPress and it was on the net for a year until the subscription lapsed. I logged in again today to WordPress but I see the site is gone from there now. Is there any way to retrieve that build from 2013?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  What is the exact URL starting with http:// of the wordpress.COM hosted site you refer to please?
  And, exactly which wordpress.COM username account registered that site?
  This is wordpress.COM support. I’m asking because we cannot accurately answer questions posted here until we have confirmed the URL referred to and verified the hosting.
  We provide support only for wordpress.COM hosted sites. Our support docs do not apply to
  (1) local installs of wordpress.ORG software on your own server or
  (2) wordpress.ORG software installs on paid hosting, and we do not provide support for them at wordpress.COM. That support is found at http://wordpress.ORG/support/
  Also, note that we do not provide Jetpack support https://jetpack.me/support/ for sites linked to wordpress.COM accounts with the Jetpack plugin so they display on the My Sites wordpress.com account page.

  Thanks for that – sorry for the delay in getting back – took me a while to understand where to go.
  The URL was http://www.happyhimalayakullu.com
  It was not hosted by WordPress, I have to admit – it was hosted by ipage who had a good offer at that time. But they have deleted the data now.
  I’m not particularly IT savvy, what would you recommend? Will the data still be in the WP archives or do I have to rebuild it?

  You will need to look in the internet archives wayback machine to locate and copy and paste the content. https://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.happyhimalayakullu.com/

  Hey there, since the site was not hosted here on WordPressdotcom there will be no backup info here. If your former webhosting service (you mentioned iPage) did not keep back ups of your site, there’s really nothing we can do to assist you here on WordPressdotcom.

  Best wishes
