  Hello I’m new to WordPress and created my own personal domain eatprettywithelsa.com and accidentally deleted it. How can I get it back ?

  Hi @elsajosemathew,

  Sure thing, the WordPress.com staff can assist with reversing the deletion.

  I am adding a modlook tag for their assistance. Please be patient while they respond.

  It looks like you’ve canceled the domain name, meaning you no longer own it.

  Please let us know which of these options works best for you:

  Wait: You can wait about five days from cancellation for the domain to be released. So long as no one else buys it before you do, you can purchase it again with another provider.

  Repurchase the Domain: We can send an invoice and restore the domain. You’ll be able to point it to a new host as soon as it’s restored, then transfer the registration after 60 days.

  Repurchase a Plan: To host your site here after all, buy a plan, skip the domain option, then update us here.
