  Hello,

  A web designer created my website for me: http://www.emmawhittaker.com

  A lot now needs updating and I have no idea how to do this!

  Please can you confirm this is a wordpress site and how I can edit the website myself?

  Thanks you for your help in advance.

  Emma

  Hi Emma, it does look like it’s WordPress, but is not hosted by WordPress.com.

  And since your site is not here on our servers, we don’t have access to help you get logged in. But I may be able to point you in the right direction.

  First, try http://www.emmawhittaker.com/wp-admin . It’s possible you’ve already got login info saved.

  If not, contact your host to be sure you have backups and can access the hosting side of your site, then read all of these these instructions from WordPress.org to determine which method you want to use to regain access to your installation:

  As long as you can log into your hosting account, you should be able to regain access. If you need more help, head to to the forums for self-hosted sites at https://wordpress.org/support

  Or, you’d be welcome to move the site to our services so we can provide direct help. Let us know if you’d like tips for doing that!
