  Hi there!

  I used to blog on the free wordpress with the url hipuddin.wordpress.com

  I decided then to delete that blog, and go to Blogger. Frankly, nothing beats wordpress, so I decided to come back here, only to discover I pressed the button to forever make that name unavailable..

  Is there any chance I can still get that url back?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  How long it’s been since you deleted your blog? Deleted blog urls can’t be recycled at least for two years. Sites deleted by their authors two or more years ago may become available again, if they present no username or other technical conflicts.

  So for now, it is easier to create a new blog with a new address.

  Hi Wendy,

  Glad to have you back! Unfortunately, sites cannot be undeleted for any reason. You can feel free to start a new site with the name of your choice but the URL of the site you previously deleted will no longer be available.

  Sorry about that and good luck on your new site!
