  Hi, I previously had a site with you under courtneykock.wordpress.com but the reason why I needed the site changed so I deleted the first one but now it will not let me create a new one under the same domain. Can I not reuse a deleted domain?

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

  Can I not reuse a deleted domain?

  Not for 2 years and that’s why there are warnings during the site deletion process.

  The relevant wordpress.COM support doc is found at http://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/.

  Deleted blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and no exceptions are made except for the one stated there.
