  Hi, I just created a new domain for free, laculturaindia. I think it got created under my existing email id, but I just can;t seem to find it!! How do I even log in? If i try to create another one with the same name , it says it’s not available.

  If i try to create another one with the same name , it says it’s not available.

  Yep, because you already created it the name would not be available again.

  Looking at your user account mybutterflystore that site is tied to this account.

  If you go to your dashboard (or My Sites) and you don’t see this new site, click the “Switch Site” link in the upper left and you should see your list of sites under your account. Click the laculturaindia site and you will be on that site’s dashboard.

  Let us know if you have any questions or if you still have trouble.

  First, we need to know which scenario you’re trying to accomplish here:

  1. Delete the laculturaindia site because you don’t want to use it anywhere.
  2. Have the laculturaindia site under a different WordPress.com user account.

  I wanted to have you clarify because deleting the site means you can’t reuse the site name laculturaindia – if it’s deleted, it’s deleted for everyone.

  If you can clarify what the end result should be for this site, we’ll be better able to advise.

  Thanks!

  But since it’s already here, I am unable to use it with the gmail id.

  Thanks

  Got it! Here’s how you can change ownership:

  Please try that, and if you have any trouble, let us know which step you’re stuck on. We’ll help you through.

  HI, thanks, I read through this. Before I proceed, I want to cross check – the transfer of the secondary blog will in no way affect the primary blog right?

  Correct. You don’t have “primary” or “secondary” blogs – you have two sites that are distinct from each other. You could have twenty blogs under your account if you want and they’d all be separate from one another.

  I hope that clarifies things!
