  Im refunded my site and domain but im trying to buy the domain on a different site to use it (not on here). How do I make the domain available again so I can repurchase it on GoDaddy. Or if I can use it on a different host, how can I purchase it to use it somewhere else on here?

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

  Hi there,

  Are you speaking of briannanicole.co?

  When you cancel a domain you give up ownership of it. As stated in the confirmation message you had to accept when you cancelled the domain, cancelled domains are not released immediately, and it can take anything from a few days to over a year before a cancelled domain becomes available again, if at all. You should never cancel a domain that you still want to use, as there’s no guarantee that you’ll be able to use it again somewhere else in future.

  In this case the domain should be released by the registry again at some point next week, but I have no way of telling you when exactly, and we don’t have any way to manually release it immediately, as we do not control this process.
