  Hi People,

  I am new here and I tried to look it up in other topics but I couldn’t find it. Anyway… the problem is…

  This URL: https://journey2success.wordpress.com/

  I would like to use this URL and as you can see, it is deleted by it’s authors. Yet I cannot use it because it’s already in use (that’s what it says). Can anyone give me a tip or help me how I can get this domain?

  Thanks a lot folks!

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