  If I delete my blog will the .com be available if I recreate on another site?

  Hi there,

  Domains actually go through a very long cancellation process when they are deleted which can take in excess of 80 days, during which time they go up for auction and can be purchased by someone else.

  If you are interested in creating an account with another company, you are certainly welcome to! But instead of cancelling your domain with us, we recommend you either change your nameservers to point somewhere else or transferring your domain name. We have help articles which can help you through either of those processes!
