Accidental Domain Deletion

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi there! My name is Catherine and I just got started with my blog. I first bought a domain on WordPress.com however, I got confused because I opted to start on Bluehost and deleted it thinking it would still work. But I am realizing now that I may actually need the domain from WordPress for it to work in combination with Bluehost except the domain is already deleted on WordPress.com. Would anyone be able to help me restore it and let me know if I actually do need the domain from WP for it to work in combination with BH? Im still very new to all this but I want to make it work. Thanks,

    Catherine A.

  • Hi Catherine!

    The account you’re writing to us from now (username: cathya03) doesn’t appear to have any active purchases – was the domain purchased on a second WordPress.com account? If you log in on your second account, you can normally find the receipts for it here:

    Depending on when it was deleted we may be able to restore it – there’s some general information here regarding domain cancellations:
