  In setting up my first attempt at a website, I deleted the domain name attached to that site. Now I can’t register that name, though I know it’s me that just cancelled same. Rookie mistakes. Any assistance possible to retrieve the unfortunately deleted domain name?

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

  Hi novascotiaseniorbaseballleague,

  Yes, I can restore nssbl.ca back to your site. The plan and domain have already been refunded so please purchase a new plan:

  Now I can’t register that name, though I know it’s me that just cancelled same.

  It’s best not to cancel a domain unless you are sure it won’t be needed in the future. There is no guarantee you will be able to re-register it and cancelled domains are not released immediately — meaning they can be unavailable for some time.

  Let me know when you have purchased a plan and I will restore the domain.
