Hi there!
Looking at your account history, I see that you used to own the domain with your WordPress.com site, but the domain expired a long time ago, and because you didn’t renew it on time, it was removed from our side.
The domain is currently registered with another company, the details of which you can see here. As of now, you don’t have any active subscriptions with us, and your site at https://allureartgallery.wordpress.com is on the free plan.
May I know if you still own the domain allureartgallery.com with Bluehost (which is where the domain is currently registered)? If not, you may not be able to use the domain anymore. But if you do own the domain with them, you can upgrade your site to a WordPress.com plan and connect the domain to your WordPress.com site.
The WordPress.com Personal plan is a great starting point if you mainly need to use your own domain with your site.
After upgrading, please follow these steps to point your domain to WordPress.com:
If you already own a domain name with another provider, you can use that domain with your WordPress.com site. Once you complete the steps below, instead of your site address being something like yourgroovysite.wordpress.com, your site’s address will be something like yourgroovydomain.com. Follow the steps in this guide to keep your domain registered with your current provider and use it to showFeel free to let us know if there’s anything else you need and we’ll be happy to help.
