  Hi there,

  While logged into the kiwellbeing.wordpress.com account, go to https://wordpress.com/domains/manage, click on the domain name you wish to transfer and then click on Transfer Domain. There are full instructions here:

  Let us know if you have any issues in that process.

  Hi there,

  If your domain expired in April, you no longer own it. You cannot transfer what you don’t own.

  If you’re speaking of kiwellbeing.com, that domain is no longer in our control, but after it expired it went through redemption and were released so anyone can buy it again. It looks like that domain is now registered with HostGator, meaning someone else now owns it. There is no way to get it back.
