  You still have a little bit more time to renew the domain from your dashboard here:

  https://dimaxweb.wordpress.com/wp-admin/paid-upgrades.php?page=my-upgrades

  You’ll need to log in with the user account that purchased the domain on that site, which is different than the israelhistory account.

  If you need further help, please let us know.

  Oh no! This domain dimaxweb.com expired 28 days ago!

  Please contact the owner of this website and ask them to renew the domain. Don’t worry, you’ll still be able to view the site at this web address: dimaxweb.wordpress.com.

  You no longer own that domain name. The registrar owns it and the registrar can set any price they wish for the redemption fee. They can choose not to make the domain available for purchase. They can choose to auction it off. they can choose to sell it to a domain name squatter and none of that has anything to do with wordpress.com. That’s precisely why the wise never allow a domain to expire.
