 * Hello,
 * So I was supposed to make a wordpress.org start all the way but I accidently 
   thought wordpress.com was the same thing. So I created an account and an admin
   for the site joyregwan.com.
    When I realized the mistake I got hosting from Bluehost
   and now I am trying to create an wordpress.org site but the site is pulling me
   back at wordpress.com insteed of letting me install the wordpress.org.
 * What can I do?
 * Should I delete my domain of joyregwan.com? How can I keep the same website name
   and use wordpress.org??
 * Please help me, thank you. When Installing wordpress from bluehost it says that
   the site already exists but I am not able to enter wordpress.org only wordpress.
   com.
 * Thank you
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fadmin-to-wordpress-org-from-wordpress-com%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hello [@joyregwan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/joyregwan/)
    You would
   need to changed the `A record` in your DNS to point to bluehost.
 * You can access the DNS manager from the place you registered the domain

 * Hello!
 * Thank you for your message. Where can I find the number which points the bluehost?
 * I searched the one for the website [https://joyregwan.com](https://joyregwan.com)
   from the Bluehost from “Manage the DNS records” and tried both the A (Host)- 
   Host Record : @ and ‘localhost’.
 * After connecting the A record of [https://joyregwan.com](https://joyregwan.com)
   to point to @ and ‘localhost’ , the same error occurs and when I try adding a
   WordPress.org site the error : “It looks like there is already a site at joyregwan.
   com. Please select a different location.” occurs again.
 * Did I do something wrong?
 * Thank you ,
 * Kind Regards,

 * I figured out how to do it and I must have got it the right way! I am still not
   able to log into wordpress.org

 * Maybe it has to do with this error : “You cannot visit joyregwan.com right now
   because the website uses HSTS. Network errors and attacks are usually temporary,
   so this page will probably work later.”
