  I’d like to restore or recover some blogs that I regret deleting. Is there a way to have that done? Please advise.

  I’m sorry, but deleted blogs cannot be restored or reused. Deleting a blog is permanent and the name cannot be used again. There are several warnings about this on the Tools -> Delete Site page and in the help pages, and you are required to confirm the deletion by email.

  Delete Blog

  You can start a new blog by logging in to WordPress.com and then going to http://en.wordpress.com/signup/

  With any blog, you can also use your custom domain with Domain Mapping upgrade. http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/

  When you go to the Posts section of your blog’s Dashboard, there are a few links to the top of the post list, including Drafts (if any) and Trash.

  As long as you didn’t empty your trash, the deleted posts should be in the Trash section. If you did empty it, they’re definitely gone forever.
