  I’m currently not paying for space on WordPress and I had an unused blog that I deleted today. Then I wanted to create a new blog to launch my business and it says it exists in my profile but that the domain name is taken when I go to “create blog” then I type in the name of my blog into google “BellaBeauty.wordpress.com” and it says this site has been deleted by the author..but I AM THE AUTHOR! and I didn’t delete it! Can anyone help?

  Take a look at the following article; You were warned several times when you first deleted the blog that the URL would not be available any longer.

  Deleted blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and no exceptions are made.

  You can register another blog with a similar name. http://en.support.wordpress.com/register-a-blog/

  Or you can register a domain via a domain mapping upgrade and it will not matter what the underlying .wordpress.com address is.
