Did i buy a lacklisted domain ?
-
or something i did?
i bought a domain for my website – itnørden.dk or as it is translated into xn--itnrden-s1a.dk. I haven’t really done anything on it yet so wanted to try and set it up on wordpress.com to get som inspiration.
But it says it is blacklisted and i can not use it. I can use it with a .net extention, but why is it blacklisted ?The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

When we need Staff help with issues Volunteers cannot resolve like this one we type modlook into the sidebar tags on our forum threads. I did that for you. How do I get a Moderator/Staff reply for my question? https://en.support.wordpress.com/getting-help-in-the-forums/#how-do-i-get-a-moderatorstaff-reply-for-my-question Then we subscribe to this thread so we are notified when they respond.

Thank you very much .. i didn’t know either how to edit my post to correct typos. However i later found MX Toolbox and nothing seems to indicate that my site is blacklisted, but i am getting more and more discouraged from using a domain name with danish letters.

Hi there,
We do not have support for internationalized domain names on WordPress.com, so you won’t be able to connect that domain to a site here.

Right, but itnørden.net seems to be okay – same domain name with .net instead of .dk is registering fine. But that is it, chosing a domain with danish letters is only asking for trouble.
Thank you for your reply. -
Do you mean if you try to register it directly with us? If I try to register itnørden.net on WordPress.com it gives me itnorden.net instead. And I’m not able to map itnørden.net here at all.
If you want to use the domain with a WordPress.com site, then you’ll need to avoid Danish letters, yes. Other services might have support for those characters, though.

Yes i took a snippet of it – it recommended itnørden.blog (i chose itnørden.net) – but can not upload it to this post ?
It is no big deal though, what alarmed me was it said my domain was blacklisted, i can rule that out though – on a general perspective . It might be on WordPress.com.. i am working on it on a hosted site -
