can someone help me figure out where my new site name went?
-
Hello,
I created a new site name and my computer shut down before I went through all the steps. When I try and create the name again it says it is unavailable. How do I resolve this issue?The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
-
What was the new URL? Are you sure it wasn’t created? Are you seeing it listed here: https://wordpress.com/stats
-
Hello!
No I’m not:( Its called homegrownjubilee. Is there a way you can see if it was created? -
I am not seeing that it has been created, but I am also not seeing that it is unavailable:
https://en.wordpress.com/typo/?subdomain=homegrownjubilee
So I would encourage you to give creating it another try. Perhaps log out and log back into your WordPress.com account before you do so just so you are starting from scratch.

OK, did it and it says its reserved. It was totally reserved by me but I don’t know how to access it. Its not showing up on my sites list.
Seriously, thank you for your help!

Ah, I must have missed the “reserved” message earlier. My apologies.
So, when a site is reserved that means there is a WordPress.com user with the same username as the site name you are trying to use. if you set up the username “joesmith2345982743598”, the system reserves joesmith2345982743598.wordpress.com for you even if you do not set up that URL for your site.
In this case, the user who has the name “homegrownjubilee” registered in 2012. So the name is unavailable I’m afraid.
