  • You can see all the details of a domain by doing a whois lookup on a site like https://www.whois.net. Click on this link to see if this info is yours. https://www.whois.net/whois/wicklowcountycricketclub.com
    If so, it will show you own the domain and the name servers at the very bottom should be pointing to where the domain is hosted. If it’s not your info then you don’t own the domain and you should contact whoever you paid for the domain.

    It’s definitely not being hosted HERE — www.ads-software.com does not host any sites. Perhaps you mean WordPress.COM — not the same thing.

    Do you have a hosting company? Did you sign up for hosting with MelbourneIT?

    Yes, sorry. I deleted that post.

    im a bit confused because when you go to the website it has a wordpress setup

    pardon my noobness but why is that?

    As noted above use the “whois” to see the information about who owns the domain name — it says the current owner is D….. R….. at Wicklow Country Club. The registration information says that the domain name is hosted on GetDotted.com free hosting — is that what you intended to do? You’ll have to go to that site to deal with any problems regarding the domain name or why WP is installed (is that what you wanted?) This site (www.ads-software.com) has nothing to do with domain name registration or hosting of websites — it’s just about using WP or downloading free, open-source themes, plug-ins or other WP stuff.

    I agree, check with the host to see why WP is installed if that’s not something you asked for or wanted. Typically, you buy a hosting plan and you pick the CMS you want to create a website with. Then you install it and build the site. If WP isn’t what you want or need, you should be able to install any of the other apps that your host offers instead. I use Cytanium.com and they use WebMatrix which offers Orchard, WP, Joomla and many others for free with one click install.
