  I deleted my website. I thought the warning meant I couldn’t undo, but I see that it is gone for good. I have my own domain name, but now can’t use it. Help!

  WordPress.com is the top level domain here and all sites hosted here are on .wordpress.com sub domains like http://gillder.wordpress.com/

  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.

  You can register another .wordpress.com URL and then purchase an upgrade plan so you can map to an existing domain.

  Register another .wordpress.com blog http://en.support.wordpress.com/register-a-blog/

  Purchase a domain mapping upgrade knowing it does not matter what the underlying .wordpress.com address is when you are domain mapping.
