    Hi there,

    I’ve looked into this, and it appears that your website wasn’t hosted here on WordPress.com. Instead, it was using the WordPress.org software.

    Based on public historical records, your website was actually hosted by GoDaddy. This is an important distinction because WordPress.com and WordPress.org are quite different. WordPress.com is a hosting platform that simplifies website management, whereas WordPress.org is software that you can install on a hosting provider like GoDaddy.

    Since your site was hosted by GoDaddy, you would need to contact GoDaddy’s support team for assistance in accessing your WordPress backend. They will be able to help you with any hosting-related issues and guide you on how to regain access to your site’s backend.

    I hope this information is helpful.
